Is that 1/16th aluminum? Two thumbs up for the welder (especially if it's a student!).

That looks just a little bit kiwi-ish

My bet is on it being a kicker...pneumatics maybe?

Judging by the angle of the holes in the front, I think it's part of a ball possession mechanism with two rollers at an angle to each other to center the ball

I'm voting for a Y latching or tensioning system. Definite props to the welder, getting those tiny aluminum pieces right takes some mad skills!

I agree with gblake, it looks like a kiwi drive.

the whole point of a teaser is to have you try to guess what the picture is... you don't see a team put up a teaser and show their whole robot

Looks possibly like a kicker, or just a teaser, who knows...
