For the human player:
Perhaps the human player could actually go onto the field and play like a robot! In the case of this year, the human player would run around the track and move the trackballs themselves. With disabling the robots as a safety measure, of course.

This would never happen. Its a robotics competition first and people would get injured like crazy. Imagine a robot playing defense on a human player.
End result: Not pretty!
