Historically we have had 6 or 7 kids. This was an ideal number. This season we have 5 seniors and 1 junior. As a result we needed to get more kids on the team to carry it forward. This year we have 18 kids, which is kind of too many. We have an "A" team and a-bot and a "B" team with their own b-bot. We only register one team for events and bring 1 robot. The "B" kids are a developmental team. In some ways it's good to have a lot of kids (fund raising, media materials...) but you can only get a few hands on an 18" robot.
