So look for a color that will make your team pop out from the 40-some other teams at your competition.
Also don't forget pass-outs at competitions. They might seem trivial and a waste of time but they will also help build your team's image. For example, I can count at least 5 kids on the Killer Bees right now that use a ThunderChickens lanyard for his or her car keys. Also on the Killer Bees we don't just hand out antenna to people at the competitions, we also created a game to get antenna in the most creative or interesting places possible. For example...
