Human players do get fairly physical, and so do drivers as they get robots on and off the field and while driving. The pit crew joins them in getting physical as they work on the robot. Scouts get physical as they go around the pits. Rules, game rules we are given each year.
I get physical while building the robot. Things often need a bit of "persuasion".

I think that although robotics is not exactly a sport, it should get all the recognition that sports get, all the privileges sporting teams get, and more.
