[FTC]: Rule Clarification for Center Goal

[FRC Team CC]

Dear Chief Delphi,

We had a question regarding the robot touching the center goal. According to Game Manual 2, our team gets penalized if the robot touches the clear plastic portion of the rolling goal. Does this rule also apply to the center goal, and if so, in both autonomous and teleop? Also, how much is the penalty?

Thanks in advance,
Sincerely,

I would read the FTC Q&A. There are many questions about this specific rule. The center goal also counts as a ball tube and the same penalty applies to it as well.
