[robocup-small] Field with slope

[Sean Verret]

I would say a vast majority of the balls that went out of bounds in 2004 
were due to poor throwin's etc. and the ball would come out right away.  
We've tried to solve this by stating all throwins, corners, and freekicks 
within 10cm of the outer edge line will be moved 10cm in from the line...

Personally with the strength of today's kickers I don't think any wall 
will make a difference...
