I just wanted to check on how <G3> applies to the VEXU division in a couple of ways.
1)
For VEXU, does “each team” mean that a member of a VEXU team could drive one robot for one match, and then drive a different robot still competiting under the same VEXU team in a different match? Or does “each team” mean that a person can only drive one specific robot on the VEXU team for the duration of the competition?
Basically I would just like to know if VEXU team members can switch between driving different robots on their team or if they have to stick with one specific robot. The rule as it is written would make me think you could switch between driving different robots under one VEXU team but I would like to be sure.
**2)
If a person is a team member on a VEXU team and participates as a driver at a competition, does this mean that they cannot go and coach a match for a VEX High School, VEX Middle School, or VEX IQ team because of G3? Or does G3 “No Drive Team Member may fulfill this
role for more than one team at any given event.”] only apply to the given event specific to the person’s division.
For example, if I am at the VEX World Championship and on a VEXU team as a driver, could I also go and be the coach on the drive team of a VEX High School team? Or would G3 not allow this?

<G3> is team specific, not Robot specific. So a VEX U driver can drive as many different Robots within one given VEX U team. However, a VEX U driver may not drive for multiple teams.

Yes, this is allowed. The VEX U World Championships and VRC High School World Championship are separate and distinct events. This can be seen by their separate registrations on RobotEvents.com**
