What additional rules may apply at the FIRST Championship?

At the FIRST Championship, it is common for additional rules or modifications to be applied in order to enhance the experience and ensure fairness among teams. One significant aspect is the allowance for extra pit crew and arena modifications. This can include expanded resources available to teams in the pit area or adjustments made to the competition arena itself that can affect gameplay. These additional provisions are designed to accommodate the scale of the Championship event, ensuring teams have the necessary support and facilities to operate effectively in a more competitive environment.

In contrast, the other options may not reflect practices typically associated with the Championship. For instance, while limited robot modifications and stricter penalties could be relevant at various competitions, the Championship often emphasizes consistent rule enforcement as set forth prior to the event. Similarly, the elimination of certain awards is not a common practice, as the Championship celebrates achievements and recognizes excellence in many forms, enhancing motivation and recognition for all participating teams.
