According to https://www.vexrobotics.com/iq/competition/viqc-current-game, Slapshot is a VEX IQ Competition game that involves two robots working as an alliance to score points by launching balls into goals. There are three types of balls: green (1 point), orange (2 points), and purple (5 points). There are also three types of goals: low (1x multiplier), mid (2x multiplier), and high (3x multiplier). The robots can use a launcher device to shoot the balls into the goals.

The robots can score points by:

* Scoring Balls into Goals – Robots score points by launching Balls into Goals. The point value for each Ball is multiplied by the Goal’s multiplier. For example, a green Ball scored in a mid Goal is worth 2 points (1 x 2).
* Completing Rows – Robots score bonus points by completing a Row of three Goals that have at least one Ball of their Alliance’s color. A completed Row is worth 6 bonus points for each Ball in that Row that matches the Alliance’s color. For example, if an Alliance completes a Row with two orange Balls and one purple Ball, they score 18 bonus points (6 x 3).
* Completing Columns – Robots score bonus points by completing a Column of three Goals that have at least one Ball of their Alliance’s color. A completed Column is worth 9 bonus points for each Ball in that Column that matches the Alliance’s color. For example, if an Alliance completes a Column with two green Balls and one purple Ball, they score 27 bonus points (9 x 3).

I hope this helps you understand how the robots score points in the Slapshot game.
