Pinning opponents TRACKBALL

Hey, are team was wondering if it was legal to pin the other teams TRACKBALL against the wall while still allowing a passing lane (6 second rule for moving does not apply)

I have looked all over the manual and have not found anything on this matter.

If i had overlooked anything or if anyone knows anything about this any info would be much appreciated. (if it is in the manual please quote what section)


THANKS!

Re: Pinning opponents TRACKBALL

From what i understand, you can hangout in any part of the field as long as there is a "passing lane." There isn't anything that i've read that says that possessing another alliances ball is against the rules either.

If you come to a FRC event to see a robot competition, you are missing the point.

Ok thanks. Mainly we were just curious about not holding it but pushing it into a corner or wall. I thought i had seen that thread somewhere but i could not find it again to clarify that.... Thanks for the link!


GOOD LUCK!
