Re: How many hours does your team work during the build season? Pol
We schedule 3 hrs on Tuesday and Thursday and then 8 hours on Saturday. This usually runs over a little bit and towards the end of build season we will schedule more for select groups of students and mentors to ensure completion and driver practice.

For the teams that work 40+ hours a week, do you really find it being that beneficial? I feel that with our team working a max of about 16 hours a week during the standard build season we field incredibly competitive robots and if we added more hours we would burn out and just lose productivity.
