Re: Rookie Team Timeline

Don't worry, just keep working hard. This is our 4th year and we have everything prototyped and are now waiting on parts being machined (which may or may not be ready on Wednesday) and Banebots which should have been here by now. Some years you will get things done more quickly and others are slower but you will learn this with experience.

If you guys haven't started on the bumpers I would. Until this year it was one of the last things we did and can actually become very frustrating. We started on them early this year (since we are waiting on parts) and so they are coming along much smoother.

We meet around the same schedule (after school and on Saturdays, I too am a lone coach and Sundays are the only day I will not give up). If there are any teams around you reach out to them and ask for mentorship etc.

My advice, be patient and remember this is a learning experience for all of you! Good luck and have a great build season...
