I measured it in CAD and from the floor in the far corner of the courtyard(By the low bar defense) to the top of the high goal is 21 feet(through the air, not distance to the base of the tower), I doubt anybody would want to shoot from the farthest point so I measured from the line in the middle of the courtyard to the high goal and that was just over 10 feet.(again through the air) It is 14 feet from the defenses to the tower. the high goal is 7 feet 1 inch off the floor. So a robot that can shoot 15 feet should be totally fine.
