From a judging perspective at various FLL events, I've noticed that the older students consistently act as quiet leaders in various ways - often serving as quiet role models and stabilizers for the team as it moves through the presentations. FLL teams are made up of all sorts of age variations - sometimes with the majority being on the young side, sometimes with the majority being on the older side, sometimes with a mix. The mix usually showcases the team well with the older team members (and their experience) helping the team play to its strengths while presenting.
