Need Balls!

I am coaching a team in the FLL contest.  I need a supply of those 5 or 6
nub diameter foam balls -- at least 30.  Does anyone have an idea of a
source?  Is there any similar thing that comes from Nerf?

How many balls come with the RoboSports expansion set?

Any advice appreciated.

Oh man... I'm coaching a team too. I didn't realize that we were going to have to find our own balls! :) -Ben (...) (25 years ago, 21-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Didn't the FLL organizers foresee the need for balls? Have you guys considered using ping pong balls instead? Very close in size to the original robo sport balls I would think. Uniform and easily obtainable. Somewhat heavier I think. <ICS> (25 years ago, 22-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics)
