Questions about bumpers and humans

[May_Walter]

hi there
I was wondering whether we can use a 7th grader fueling specialist (baller) or is he too young
secondly, are we supposed to send the bumpers with the robot on due day or bring it to the competition?
thanks,
team 3083

The answer to the second part of your question is yes the bumpers are to be shipped with the robot in the crate.

For your first question, this is what the rules define the payload specialist as:
PAYLOAD SPECIALIST: A pre-college student team member permitted to pass GAME PIECES
into, and receive GAME PIECES from, the CRATER. There is one PAYLOAD SPECIALIST per
TEAM.
