They could be kicked out to the other robots who could then attempt to score. To incorporate the human player, the balls could be dumped during a 10sec period occurring twice per minute into a ball return. The humans would then feed the balls through a chute back into the netted area.
Sounds like '04 (dumping balls) plus '09 (goals pulled by robots) plus '10 (kicking)

Maybe the balls could be above the net and the robots under it, the biggest issue seems to be driver visibility and entanglement
