Re: Appropriate penalties for off-the-field ethical/behavioral violations
Just moving it to the right thread:
If the team performing these actions has more regionals or championship to attend on top of the given regional, they should be barred from receiving any awards or taking apart in the final rounds. Their actions do not merit any positive recognition during that competition year or perhaps the next also; however, they should be allowed to at least participate in the qualifying rounds so that the individuals not involved in these violations will not become punished and the students may become inspired by watching the rounds.
I also feel that FIRST should explain in writing to the team that is such an action was to be performed by them again, they would not be able to participate in any FIRST competition in the future.
