3.2.3.4 G12, the rule which disallows the "launching" of an opponent's ball, also defines "deflecting" as "being hit by a propelled BALL that bounces or rolls off of the ROBOT." Deflecting is legal with regard to contacting the opponents' ball. An arm extending into the low goal would be considered to deflect the ball, not launch it, for it is merely being hit by a ball projected by the opposition.
