Not very. I've read in a few places where teams that are using fans mentioned this. They all seem to agree that the ball has too many holes to catch much wind. Especially since they aren't able to focus the wind on the ball.

Edit: No, there is no rule against using a fan to deflect the balls. The update says you can't use a fan to remove balls from the trailor.
