I think that seniority is important and team members who have shown a consistent commitment to the team should be rewarded.

Sure, there may be rookie phenoms, but really, it's not about the robot.
We do a similar thing with our off-season events. We do our team testing in the fall for new and returning students, and from our results, select the team for the off-season event. If they do fine in the event, we keep that team for the upcoming season.
