Re: Are you allowed to serve food/drink in your booth at the competition?
It's only allowed if you give them all to me.

Re: Are you allowed to serve food/drink in your booth at the competition?
Prohibiting water is just plain wrong. Regardless of what contracts the lawyers drew up, I would encourage all coaches, mentors, and students to do what they need to do to keep people hydrated during these gruelling events. And I would encourage organizers and volunteers to spend their finite energies however they see fit. I can understand it when paid venue employees go after kids with water bottles as part of their job (it's still stupid in the larger scheme), but it is senseless for FIRST volunteers to give a [hoot] if a kid brings an outside bottle of water into an arena.

During play offs, some teams bring cold water near staging area (close to field) and share with others. During our first play off matches, this was a blessing! That's the time when the auditorium is jam packed and hot. Then you have the team members trying to do everything they can and it gets pretty hot.
The no-food policy in pits makes sense. I don't know if they enforce this rule anywhere outside pits. |

I think the food policy largely depends on the venue. I've heard both, though I would think that food isn't allowed in the queue or near the field at any event. |

Yep! Champs in 2014... 6 Krispy Kreme doughnuts in every pit.. Granted they were sealed, and that is the best way to distribute one of anything to each team, still not a great idea in my opinion if they don't want consumption in the pits.

At the Midwest regional one of the teams from Turkey was passing out Turkish Delight to teams visiting their pits.
