ball penalties? - Chief Delphi

I see people show up to a competition with their masterpiece, and proud of it. They are inspired by what they have accomplished. To make it onto the field is a high-it is the culmination of the thousands of hours of dedication compromises and commitment. They feel on top of the world. That's FIRST. - fox46 [more]

Re: ball penalties?

And, furthermore...

Quote:

<G20> Field Damage - The head referee may disable a ROBOT that has damaged the playing field, carpet, goals,
etc. if the head referee feels that further damage is likely to occur. The head referee may require
corrective action, such as eliminating a sharp edge, before the ROBOT will be allowed to compete in
subsequent matches.

I'm not the GDC, but wouldn't balls be considered part of the field?

Either way--damaging balls is not fair game.

Rule #1: Do not die. Rule #2: Be respectful. Rule #3: Be safe. Rule #4: Follow the handbook.
