Re: My Blog: Starting a Competitive New Team
This is a great undertaking.
Just remember that building a robot and being competitive on the field is the least of your worries your first year.
You need to plan for continued success. Build a base of a good team.
Organization, fundraising, the support infrastructure, team comradarie, team image... the fundamentals of sustainability.
If you base a team on how well you do on the field you have a much harder time winning.
If you base a team on building a team that enjoys working and playing hard together you will always be a winner. Rejoice in your team's accomplishments no matter what they are. Have fun. Always look out to help others and the community. These are the hallmarks of a truly great team.
Good luck!!
