This is not to hard of a robot to make.

Step one make a small arm that goes up and deploys a cable around the bar

Step two bring in the arm and run around on top two platform still connected to the bar by a cable.

Step three use the arm that brought the cable up to the pole to knock off the 2x ball at the last sec.

Step three turn on the winch and fly by anybody that might be in your way. ( it is hard to stop something that is going up.)

The easy of them all is having a strong robus robot to push other robots.
