I looked up the field drawings and did a quick check

the center starting position box is 27' along the long side of the field to the end, and 13' from the center. Knocking off a few feet to the middle of the box, its 11'.

(27^2 + 11^2) ^ 0.5 = 29 feet to the bottom of the goal at floor height.

The example FIRST gave for the 12M/S ball speed limit says the ball will travel 35 feet if fired at max speed with a 30° angle. Thats 35 feet to where it hits the floor.

So its looking like you would have to exceed the muzzle velocity limit to swish balls through the goal from the center starting postion, or the one further away.

One other factor: the way the bots are all lined up along one side, will the two farthest bots be able to shoot towards the center goal without hitting the next bot in the back of the head?
