Maintaining Ball Size at Competition

Hello,

After discussing for a bit and checking around with different teams team 1261 found that the ball diameters varied greatly from the two feet (or 24 inches). Some teams had balls as low as 20 inches and some as high as 28 inches.

Our question is, how is FIRST going to maintain a consistent ball size throughout the regionals?

It seems like a good idea would be to have a sizing cylinder at the events to ensure balls are at 24 inches.

Additionally couldn't balls be pumped with nitrogen to ensure that their diameter stays about the same throughout the events?
