Like that's ever going to happen for every team.
Don't you mean for ANY team? I have refereed over 20 FIRST events and I am still amazed every year by the number of drive team members that don't know some of the most basic rules. I will say it is usually much better at the championship event, but even there some of the students AND mentors don't know the rules.

So ... sorry - it's a little early for this ... and you WILL hear me say it again ...

PLEASE READ THE RULES!
