So a CATCH occurs when, after the ball is scored over the truss, the ball is either:
1. Caught by the same robot that threw it
2. Caught by a different robot on the same alliance
3. Caught by the Human Player.

Am I missing something here?
And then later in the Game Manual:


It says a CATCH is worth 10 points. Again, the definition is above. Therefore, if any of the above three happens, Catch points should be awarded, since if those are defined as catches, they should be worth 10 points once per cycle.
