This year we are using conveyor belting to pick-up and release the ball.
We have 4 wheel drive & tank drive with steerable font end.
Using craftsman socket universal joints and the Ackerman steering principle - we have named it "Crafts-Ackerman" Steering.
We also have used a set of cross country ski's that raise and lower to knock the ball off the rack.

The $10 we paid for a used set of skis was not a budget breaker

The skis should deploy down so your robot can go skiing or water skiing.

Yes I'm sure you could find a used pair of old skis for $10 or free!
Even if purchased as new skis, approx $100 - they would easily fall within our additional parts price limit.
