LOL, I like the way you think...

as far as the electro magnet, you may not even have to hide it since it's not technically an *electronic* interference. It's more of a mechanical one that is electrically activated.

Instead of "pulling" the opponent w/ the magnet into a hole, it'd be easier to "attach" yourself to him and then "direct" him towards the hole and turn off the magnet.... he's at your mercy and unable to detach himself until you say so...

Physical interference is a bit vauge since later it is described as obstruction of sight line.... maybe driving your bot in front of the opposing team's booth and setting off some smoke would be good... it's a sight line obstruction but not really *physical*.... they may not go for it for tv reasons. They want to see all the action from all the cameras.

Since gas is allowed, you could use liquid nitrogen to disable/freeze the robot's drivetrain. Liquid is not allowed, but when it comes out it's a gas soooo...... maybe
