<SG5>

Each Robot gets one Ring as a preload. Prior to the start of each Match, each Robot must have a preload placed such that it is:

Contacting one Robot of the same Alliance color as the preload.

Not contacting the same Robot as another preload.

Not contacting or encircling a Stake or any other Scoring Objects.

Note: If a Robot is not present for their Match, then that Robot’s preload may be placed prior to the Match such that it satisfies the criteria listed in <SG4>.

Violation Notes: See <SG1>.
