Hm, I was thinking of the tech teachers, not someone on the team. This is an odd thing for me to hear, since our tech teachers (and supervisor, and administration, and BoE...) are all very enthusiastic about the robot team. I guess some teachers need to re-learn why they went into teaching...

That's an understatement! Our deployer is similar, riding on some Igus track and using latex tubing as the 'slingshot'. Deploy is about 0.15 second, whacking the minibot onto the pole with audible force. It definitely works.
