Thou art a rookie. Wait until next year. Or review matches from previous years.

This would never happen. Its a robotics competition first and people would get injured like crazy. Imagine a robot playing defense on a human player.
End result: Not pretty!
2003. HP went out onto the field to make like a robot. Robots were disabled. Then in auto mode, the robots could aim for the human bins.
