"Attach" per the American Heritage Dictionary online is

"1. To fasten, secure, or join: attached the wires to the post."

(See http://www.bartleby.com/61/73/A0507300.html)

Those arms don't look fastened to the midfield pipes.

"Support" per the American Heritage Dictionary online is

"1. To bear the weight of, especially from below."

(See http://www.bartleby.com/61/66/S0906600.html)

I don't see the pipes holding any of your weight.

(There are other definitions for both words, but I think those are the ones that apply to the context in the rules.)

Personally I think that you have come up with a brilliant solution to this year's competition. I have to admit to being a little annoyed--not with you--but with myself for not thinking of this possibility.

We thought that we had a real jump on the game by swinging our telescoping arm from the starting position to knock down the bins. You have given us a lot to think about.

Great job. Hopefully we will make it to the Nationals and be on your team.
