Re: The Struggles of Bigger Teams
We can feel the growing pains here.
Usually at our first meeting we'll have 20-30 kids (and that's just from one school!) Usually by the week before Kickoff the number has tapered off to 10-20 dedicated members between both of our feeder schools. In addition, 10 or so of those members are seniors or juniors who already have experience building a robot. That works fine, and the majority are happy with the load distribution.
This year however, each school had 30-40 kids show up, and that number hasn't been decreasing like it has in previous years. What's worse is that between all of them, we only have 7 or so veteran members who can pass down information.
My main concern is that we will not be able to teach everyone what they need to know pre-season, and that we will suffer from it this build season.
