E101        *Personal safety comes first. All team members must observe the following safety practices throughout the event:

A.      wear safety glasses (only ANSI-approved, UL Listed, CE EN166 rated, AS/NZS certified, or CSA rated non-shaded) while in and around the playing FIELD and in the pit area.

B.      wear closed toed/heeled shoes.

C.      tie back long hair while working on or around a ROBOT or ROBOT related materials.

D.      wear appropriate clothing.

E.      walk in the venue.

F.      health and safety requirements in place for that event (e.g. mask wearing).
