Answered: Question regarding <G9>

[alex531]

<G9> It is expected that Scoring Objects may unintentionally leave the field during match play.
Scoring Objects that leave the playing field will be returned to Zone from which they exited from (e.g.
The Zone where the Robot was that launched it or last contacted it on its way out of the field). Teams
may not intentionally remove Scoring Objects from the field. We do expect Scoring Objects to leave
the field accidently during Scoring, however doing so intentionally or repeatedly would be a violation
of this rule. Minor violations of this rule that do not affect the match will result in a warning. Egregious
(match affecting) offenses will result in a Disqualification. Teams that receive multiple warnings may
also receive a Disqualification at the head referee’s discretion.

In a condition where the robot is sitting in both Far zone and Near Zone and launched a scoring object out of the field, which zone should the ref return it to?
Thanks in advance!

In scenarios like this, the referees will return the Scoring Object to the Far Zone.
