Starting Position

[jakey]

Our team is a rookie team this year and we were wondering if the starting location of your team's robot is pre-determined or if you get to talk with your alliance and decide were each robot will start. :confused:

Within your alliance you will choose where you start. Good Luck!

[Conor Ryan]

Hope this helps

4.3.4 Robot Operations
4.3.4.1 Starting Conditions
<G10> Starting Positions - At the beginning of a match, the three alliance ROBOTs must be placed inside one of
the three 5’ x 5’ robot starting zones located at mid-field to the right of the DRIVER’s station and not
touching the tape boundaries. It is the responsibility of the head referee to verify that this rule is satisfied
prior to the start of the match. The match will not be started until all robots are in the starting position.


Good luck with your rookie season, check section 4 for more information on this

edit: they don't specify what area you start in, so you get to agree with your alliance strategically where you want to start. Nothing else rules otherwise, so thats how I would interpret this.
