It was a little different last year because the match sheet for the qualification rounds assigned which robot goes to which side of their part of the field. That is why robots couldn't just program their autonomous mode for the right or left side of the field only. They had to plan for both.

In Elimination rounds, however, you can pick which side of your part of the field to put your robot in.

I expect this year will be the same as last year becaues of the autnomous mode, but it is something you should ask FIRST to clarify.
