[NEW TEAM] What to do during pre-season for rookies

Hello! I'm the leader of a new team from Japan, Team 5701. We're finally registered for Hawaii Regionals (getting excited!). We haven't got enough sponsors though, still working on it.

As for students' skills, most of team members are not that skilled in robotics but they're eager to learn new things. So I thought we need to study a lot during pre-season. Yesterday and today, we had meetings where we had our mentors teach us some basics about electricals and mechanicals. We're planning to build a small robot during December too (a robot that can pick up balls and shoot). Is this enough? I don't know what to expect for 2015 season, so I'm a little worried.

Thanks!
