Re: WHEN to choose drive teams

On FRC2168, we start training potential drivers when they are freshman, and we typically will not have them drive at official competitions until they are a junior. This typically means that at any one time we are training around 6-8 drivers.

This year our drive team is returning from last year as they are both now seniors.

We take driver selection and training fairly seriously as we believe a robot will only perform as well as the drivers at the controls.
