I am sure I have the same concerns as you do, but at least I know I'm not alone. Hopefully we will be able to help each other.
So you've been on a rookie team before. Not having any real amount of experience with rookie FRC teams is what worries me. But yes, working with other teams is one of the things I love most about FIRST. The whole idea of gracious professionalism and coopertition is something you don't see in most competitions, but it is one of the main ideas thorughout FIRST, and I think that is just amazing.
