H103       *Humans, stay off the Field until green. Team members may only enter the Field if the Driver Station LED strings are green, unless explicitly instructed by a Referee or an FTA.

Violation: Verbal warning. If subsequent violations at any point during the event, Yellow Card.

Egregious violations of this rule to which H201 may apply include, but are not limited to:

a.      pushing past the Field reset person blocking an open gate to get on the Field,

b.      ignoring a warning to not go on the Field,

c.      walking on to the Field during a Match, and

d.      reaching into the Field and grabbing a Robot during a Match.

Violations of this rule apply to the entire team, not specifically to any 1 individual. For example, a member of Team 9999 enters the Field prior to lights going green after Match 3, and a different member enters the Field prior to lights going green after Match 25. The team receives a verbal warning for the first violation and a Yellow Card for the second.
