Tool/Handle Gives Points Rather Than Humanoid?

Hello fellow ROBLOXian Scripters. I am in need of help, I am making a game that implements a Leaderboard consisting two things: XP and Levels. I was wondering instead of me touching the brick, is there a way a tool can touch it and give XP? It's for a basketball game.

01--Basically checks if the toucher of the button is a player, then adds money to that player.
02 
03local ting = 0 --debouncer
04 
05function onTouched(hit)
06 
07    if ting == 0 then --debounce check
08    ting = 1 --activate debounce
09    check = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Handle") --Find the human that touched the button
10 
11    if check ~= nil then --If a human is found, then
12 
13        local user = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent) --get player from touching human
14        local stats = user:findFirstChild("leaderstats") --Find moneyholder
15 
16        if stats ~= nil then --If moneyholder exists then
17            local cash = stats:findFirstChild("XP") --Money type
18            cash.Value  = cash.Value +1000 --increase amount of money by the number displayed here (500)
19            wait(3) --wait-time before button works again
20        end
21 
22    end
23 
24    ting = 0 --remove debounce
25    end
26 
27end

Here's some extra code when left-clicking the basketball:

01Tool = script.Parent
02 
03function fire(v)
04    local vCharacter = Tool.Parent
05    local vPlayer = game.Players:playerFromCharacter(vCharacter)
06    local spawnPos = vCharacter.PrimaryPart.Position
07    spawnPos  = spawnPos + (v * 5)
08    connection:disconnect()
09    wait()
10    Tool.BallShadow.Disabled = false
11    Tool.Parent = game.Workspace
12    Tool.Handle.Position = spawnPos
13    Tool.Handle.Velocity = (v * Tool.Power.Value)+Vector3.new(0,50,0)
14end
15 
16function onActivated()
17    local character = Tool.Parent;
18    local humanoid = character.Humanoid
19    if humanoid == nil then
20    print("Humanoid not found")
21    return
22    end
23    local targetPos = humanoid.TargetPoint
24    local lookAt = (targetPos - character.Head.Position).unit
25    fire(lookAt)
26end
27 
28while true do
29    script.Parent.Activated:wait()
30    connection = game:service("RunService").Stepped:connect(onActivated)
31    wait()
32end

Here you go sir made officially by Resplendid 100%

The Brick is:

01--Made 100% by Resplendid
02--For LukeGabriel
03function onTouch(hit)
04local look = hit.Parent:findFirstChild("BallHandler").Value
05    local found = game.Players:findFirstChild(look)
06    local cash = found:findFirstChild("leaderstats")
07    cash.XP.Value = cash.XP.Value+1000
08    print("Gave +1000 XP")
09end
10script.Parent.Touched:connect(onTouch)
11 
12 
13and the leaderstats in workspace by itself:
14 
15--Made 100% by Resplendid
16--For LukeGabriel
17local playerStats = {} --this keeps a list of the stats for each player that enters the game
18 
19 game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
20     local leaderstats = Instance.new("Model", player)
21     leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"
22     local points = Instance.new("IntValue", leaderstats) -- Lines 10, 11, and 12 are removable. Remove them if you want only the rank to be displayed.
23     points.Name = "XP" 
24     playerStats[player] = leaderstats 
25 end)

Also there needs to be a IntValue inside of the ball called "BallHandler" with a script of:

1while wait() do
2    plr=game.Players:FindFirstChild(script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Name)
3    if plr then
4        script.Parent.Value=plr.Name
5    end
6end

Here you go! It worked for me and it should work for you. Also, give me credit for this work.

Thanks, Resplendid.
