It'd be a lot to keep track of, and I'm not sure how it fits in the rest of their workload, but that might be a possibility.
I don't how how this might work, I typically am pretty focused on my teams robot and the areas directly around our robot. It has been shown multiple times that six refs with tablets can't accurately keep track of which balls are auto balls, fouls, or assists. Nothing against them, this is an impressively difficult game to referee. But if they can't do it consistently as a team, how is a coach going to manage it while coaching too?

I showed this game to my friend who officiates football games and every question he had was about how the refs could possibly keep up with all of it.
