15 point auto club

No high goal shooter? No problem. You can still join the 15 point auto club. Just provide video of your team scoring exactly 15 points in auto in an official FRC match, and you’re in!

There’s a good chance that this club will be more exclusive than the 20 point auto club, but we’ll have to see.

I’d actually venture that 15 points is slightly harder to get than 20 (for non-low bar defenses). If you have a autonomous high goal shooter, the robot location can probably vary a bit, but to hit the low goal, you need better path planning.

3711 hits low goal in autonomous at PNW district CWU event match #32:

Most of the time however another alliance member gets in front of us in autonomous and either blocks the path or shot itself. This time we got lucky with a clear path.

4935 at NC District Wake County- Semifinals 1. Did it more than that, but this was the first one I found. (Thanks, 2642 for recording the eliminations matches.)

3683 at GTR Central Semis 1 Match 1

Team 25 ran our low bar, low goal 15 point autonomous mode at our first event (video). We also have Cheval de Frise and Portcullis autonomous modes that score low, but have yet to run them in competition.

1065 has both a high and low goal auto mode.

836 completed our low goal autonomous about 85% of the time at the Greater DC District Event. Most were from the left, but we also did it once from the right, after crossing the rock wall in the number 5 slot.

1712 joined the 15 point autonomous club during MAR Champs. We successfully ran low goal autonomous modes from the position 1 low bar and position 4 ramparts. If we can manage to wrangle up some practice field time at Championship, we hope to fine tune some of our other positions’ routines as well.

Team 4557 would like to claim membership to this club here:

We forgot to switch it to high goal mode, but hey, it went in.

That ramparts auto is crazy.

We are hoping to do other defenses at champs, but right now the only proven scoring one we have is our low bar routine.

1262 the stags are a notable member of this club, hitting quite frequently at Hampton Roads.

Here’s a (somewhat) better view of the position 4 routine:

The routine is theoretically not defense specific, but the different defenses do impact the position of the robot and can impact the consistency of the routine.
