Yes, I can see that now. I guess we do take our good students for granted.

I understand your limitations regarding team size and sponsorship, but frankly, we do not tolerate "lazy people and trolls" on our team. I have no problem challenging those kind of students to get active - or asking them to leave. We're not a babysitting service, or free food.
Students need to earn their way to Regionals, and non-contributors are informed of this very early in the season. Yes, we did lose 20% of the team since Kickoff, but guess which end of the performance curve decided to stop showing up?
Any student can be given a task, even if it's just sweeping the floors or taking out the trash. Games of any type - except 5th Gear - are not permitted at all. Sit around enough, even the student leaders will get on your case. (Exception: If you're doing homework. Health, Grades, Robot - in that order).
