My question envolves the method of getting the ball to the tall goal. After they showed the softball thrower during the kickoff, that was my best idea! Any other ideas out there that you want to share? its seems to me that anything pneumatic or spring loaded would take way too long to shoot, considering the number of balls on the field. Thanks a bunch and good luck in the upcoming competition!

softball type thing is way to go... i mean you can keep feedin' um in and you can shoot a bunch at once. pneumatic and spring would take too long... i'd only do it that way if thats you secondary "weapon" or if your attempting to shoot from a distance ACCURATELY. i think only a handfull for teams are gonna go for that center goal too and theres gonna be a lot of defence and "battlebots" type action, except in a controled manner.
