Re: Human Players Only?
Here's the most current ruling:
<g17> SMALL balls may only be SCORED by the HUMAN PLAYER's direct throw or by SMALL balls falling unabated from the Ball Release into a Mobile Goal. If any other team member throws a SMALL ball into the field during a match, that team's ROBOT will be disabled and the team will be disqualified.
Which translates to: Robots still cannot touch the small balls to get them into the goal. So while the mobile goal may be placed under the Ball release, the robot may NOT act as a funnel or conveyor for the balls.
