I might have a convoluted suggestion (bear with me here).
Going through a hoop has typically been referred to as “jumping hoops.”
Another word for a sweater (in England) is a “jumper.”
Since the Gukko-Suits are a type of over-garment, why not call the scorers “Jumpers?”

Jumper would work if they jumped more. I get the thought process, but the audience probably wouldn’t.
Soarer isn’t bad, but sounds a bit strange.

Kini? Kini-Nui isn’t used in G3 if I’m correct, so it might work

I checked Biosector, and Kini is used as the suffix for regional temples on Mata Nui

Karda means “heart” in Matoran. “Bokarda” means “heart of forest.”
Wait… Phantoka!

That, or the position could be called “Phantoka”

How about the game is called “Phantoka”, and the main players are named after that.

I’m all for the game being called Phantoka, but calling the scoring position “Phantoka” as well might be confusing. Since Phantoka means “air spirit,” let’s just call the scorers “Spirits.”

Okay, I’ve finished editing the first post. What else should be added, if anything?

You could probably erase the first major paragraph (the one immediately after the very first two sentences) and replace it with the layout of the arena/stadium/play area
