Re: Best Game STRATEGY

Penalties = lost match. With the way First refs have been handing out penalties any defensive strategy is risky. Concentrate on capping. That's not to say you shouldn't take a shot at an opponent on the way to or from a goal. I saw too many teams spend the last seconds trying to cap a goal only to fail. Get your alliance back in your zone and take that 10 points. The game is very fluid. The adults can see the whole field while the drivers tend to only see the bot. The adults need to communicate the next goal to cap to the student player who then instructs the driver. The student player also needs to communicate peripheral actions that are going to affect the bot to the driver. I kind of wished the refs had allowed things to get physical. There were allot of top heavy unstable bots just asking to be put down but, they were left alone for fear of penalties.
