Help with projectile collisions

Hello! I have recently been working on a tower obby game with tools that can be used to sabotage other players. One of these tools is a bouncy ball that you can throw at people to knock them off of the obby. The only problem with it is that it always hits the person throwing the ball and knocks them off too. Does anyone know how to solve this? I’ve attached the relevant scripts below:

Here’s the script inside of the ball itself.

function trip(part)
		
	script.Parent.Antigrav.Enabled = false
	script.Parent.VectorForce.Enabled = false
	part.Parent.Humanoid.Sit = true
	part.Parent.Humanoid.Health -= 5
	
		end

	script.Parent.Touched:Connect(trip)

Here’s the script that goes inside of the tool.

function superball()
	
	local ball = game:GetService("ServerStorage").assets.superball:Clone()
	
	ball.Parent = game.Workspace
	ball.Position = script.Parent.Handle.Position
	ball.Orientation = script.Parent.Handle.Orientation
	ball.VectorForce.Enabled = true
	ball.Value.Name = script.Parent.Parent.Name
	wait(0.05)
	ball.CanCollide = true
	ball.CanTouch = true
	
		end

	script.Parent.Activated:Connect(superball)

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
