We were thinking a pneumatic piston, makes sense to me!

uhhh I don't remember getting any pneumatic pistons in the kit.... We can get 3 free but not officially the kit

The sample bumper foam! try it...hold it at a 45 degree angle so the end would hit the ball, pretend it's attached to the top of the robot, walk quickly under the ball resting on the overpass, see if it knocks the ball off.

It's flexible too.

Actuating it might not be too difficult, we have a bunch of Vex servos

Thanks, that's brilliant. And soft, too.
