It is by no means a requirement, but I can't stress how much help documentation brings to a team (especially as a person who has had to bridge data gaps in the team by piecing together any information and anecdotal material he could find).

As a rookie team, I think that taking pictures of the robot, noting how you went about designing the robot, and pointing to its successes and failures can help your team in the offseason and in future seasons. This discipline of writing down these processes can carry over into sustainability plans, so you have more chances to build more robots and inspire more people.
