Overt Repeatedly

I apologize in advance if this question has already been asked and answered. I did a quick search but couldn't find a clear answer. I also already read the manual, but would like some clarification of the thoughts my team has had.

I know this has been talked about “repeatedly” but the rules and the numerous threads have not been very “overt” in defining the finer points of possessing a ball. Two questions we have:

#1
Repeatedly:
Does hitting the ball TWICE while directing it ANYWHERE count as a possession?


#2
Overt:
Does pinning the ball against the side rail for ONE second count as an “overt” isolation …or possession?

Scenario
A robot that struggles on your alliance (e.g. box on wheels) can still be used to possess in a zone if they bump the ball twice in a direction …or they pin it against rail for a second …back away and another alliance bot picks it up and runs. Does that initial robot (box on wheels) get the possession?
