Standing Up During Competition...

We've had some of the same difficulties in standing to support our team this past season. A ruling needs to be made by FIRST about standing during matches so that all teams will follow the same policy. There is nothing wrong in showing your team spirit and supporting the drivers. Since the beginning, teams have been allowed to do this and there is no reason why it should be changed now. In addition, FIRST projects the match onto a large screen above the field for those who cant see.

In the spirit of FIRST and gracious professionalism, I feel that teams telling others to sit down is rude and unappropriate. Teams should be able to stand and cheer because all have worked hard to build their robot and to even attend a competition.
