What is the correct way to renter these boulders per rules? The reason I bring this up is because we were the main team at the event that launched boulders outside the field via ricochet of the tower. I'm not on the drive team but it appeared that we made sure if the boulders were placed into the field in any way that wasn't through the HP, we didn't want to touch them.

3.2 Match Logistics: BOULDERS that exit the FIELD over a GUARDRAIL during a MATCH are placed back into the FIELD approximately at the point of exit by FIELD STEWARDS (REFEREES, FTAs, or other staff working around the FIELD) at the earliest safe opportunity. BOULDERS that exit the FIELD over a CASTLE WALL during a MATCH are returned to the COURTYARD at the corner of the GUARDRAIL and CASTLE by FIELD STEWARDS at the earliest safe opportunity.
