I can envision this...something like 2v0+2v0, in effect like how the FLL fields are set up (one robot on one side, another on the flip side, and little or no interaction between them). Especially since FLL alumni are now well into the FRC phase of their lives. Redabot and Redderabot are on one side of the field, separated from Bluabot and Bluerabot by a fence or something that keeps robots from crossing over (or under). The challenge would then be adding some kind of offense or defense, to keep the game interesting--something like a ball- (or donut- or inflatable clown-) sized chute to the other side.
