Re: Are The Penalties Too High?

I don't think that the penalties are too high. FIRST wanted to discourage certain behaviors. Many teams do not take the time to avoid the impact of penalties, but they should. It is very easy to avoid penalties, just have you human player take care, and watch how you play defense. It is easy to play a certain style of defense and naver have to put the refs in a situation where they have to make a call.

I just think that penalties are easy to avoid if you prepare for them. Teams should spend more time talking about how to avoid penalties during their strategy sessions.

Good luck to everyone, and lets keep it penalty-free!
