You have to realize that this is one of the first weeks of competition and that this is the first time most of these refs are reffing the game. I'm sure that as the season progresses they will get better at noticing fouls (as well as teams getting better at not committing them). FIRST is also probably going to tweak the workforce so that the teams are better covered by refferees and everyone geta a fairer chance. Remember that Referees are people that they want what's best for the teams as well as what's fair for the teams. Keep in mind that they spend their weekends at events voluntarily and just want to make sure the game is played fairly and to have fun, not get yelled at by teams for making a bad call.
