Hi
I am a memeber of team 69's drive team, and I was wondering how the other teams are doing with there practice.

Our drivers took advantage of last years robot to practice untill we had use of our new bot! Even though the concept and speed of the robot is different the transitions is turning out to be fairly simple!

Our Human players are mak ing progress on shots from both the starting position and when the goals are against the glass!

So how are you guys doing???
Do you have time to practice?

I would like to hear from you!

Our drive system is pretty much completely different
from last year so practicing with last year's robot was
not too much of an option. We built a prototype robot
out of 2x4 wood and I (the current driver) was able to
practice with that. Myself and the other robot
operator are returning from last year so part of the
practice is already taken care of.

As for human players, I think we just may have some
sort of "tryout" session for prospective
"basketballers". We hope to have multiple options in
the human player department.

Just my personal thoughts...

Are we supposed to take this as meaning your drivers aren't acually human?
