Re: Rookie Awards Ethics Question
All good questions.
In my opinion, Situation 3 is the only rookie team of those examples.
**Edit.. And probably Situation 1 if they are on thier own and only getting advice from the mentor team.
I've heard of another scenario where "team A" is a rookie team (started by some experienced mentors) exists for a couple years, then looses it's school and funding. Then the experienced mentors form a new "team B" somewhere else, and are considered a rookie team and all the rookie benefits. I don't know what they brought with them such as tools, supplies, etc. I assume they started over, not sure.
What do you think about that?
I guess you could argue that anyone, experienced or not, starting a new team for a new organization, needing new funding, equipment, sponsors etc is going to struggle I think.... and should be considered a rookie team.
I haven't read what the criteria is to be a rookie team, these are just my thoughts.
