I second this. We weren't officially a rookie team last year (resurrected team), but we were a team of rookies
. Going to a kickoff event really gets everyone ready and excited for the new game, and is a great opportunity to meet other teams. A local team, 2337 EngiNERDS also had training/support there so that inexperienced and rookie teams/team members could learn how to start building the KoP chassis, putting together a control board, and start programming in LabVIEW. I don't know about your kickoff location, but it's possible to find similar help there. It's a good experience, tons of fun, and you can learn a lot.
