Not necessarily, since FIRST has been around for 20 years, and we assume that there was an 18 year old senior on a team it's initial year. Said senior then waited until he was 24 to have a kid, that child could now be 14. This would mean that the kid is now a freshman in high-school. It is plausible that there could be a "Second Generation" around now on an FRC team. I don't think that it will even have to take another 5 years, we could start seeing them anytime now. It just depends on the student's experiences, their current locations, student interest, etc... There are a lot of factors to think about, but the numbers show that we could theoretically see one soon!
