Re: FIRST Fails To Address Chaos During Morning Entry at Champs

I 100 % agree with everything you said.
I had a moment last week to speak one on one with a member of the FIRST staff and I mentioned this as one of the biggest safety concerns at Worlds. I assure you I will also be writing to them about it as well.

I did find this (page 11):
"FRC Divisional Team Viewing: In an attempt to improve match viewing for teams, we are piloting a new process at this year’s Championship. During matches, a designated viewing area will be available for the 6 teams in the current match. We ask that teams leave the viewing area promptly following their matches in a gracious manner, to allow the next set of teams to view. Please note: the viewing area will be monitored by event staff and
volunteers."

Which I thought was *semi* along the same lines. Maybe by limiting seating they are hoping to solve the rush in the morning?
