I need some help with ball launching bot

Hey uh to explain, me and a teammate have to create a bot that can shoot a tennis ball the farthest away, but we can use one motor, and the bot has to reload and launch itself (via pressing buttons in the controller) I was thinking of using a wheel launcher combined with a simple rubber band launcher, I have an idea on how to do it with only one motor but I’m pretty sure the force is just gonna cancel out. Could really use the help. Thanks in advance

Hi, yes i suppose this for a private comp that is not part of vex. or is a project work.
you can build a linear puncher is really easy to build and using the red cart, you can shoot really far.
you can check out this site, it goes in detail, it is wiki, so you can view other types of launchers accordingly to your needs.
