As far as picking up the ball, I have this guess. Those two side-board mounted cylinders will pull your entire tower forward on an angle. This will allow the yet-to-be-replaced wood cradle to "kneel" in front of the bumper, and the wheel at the top will scoop the Trackball in. Am I close?

Looking forward to seeing this in competition.
Very, very close, the only thing different is that the cradle actually doesn't go in front of the bumpers, it will rest either slightly on top or behind them. But you basically got it right.

Yes, that is correct, the wheel chains alternate sides.
