Re: Recycle Rush reminiscent of FIRST Lego League

The soccer reference oddly enough popped into my head because I was watching my daughter's dry land practice for diving (it is so much fun watching kids do general strength exercises), and since we just got back from break my usual task of grading was not available. So I was doodling in my notebook about the referee training I will be leading in a couple of weeks for youth soccer referees. One of the specific things we always talk about is how to explain offside to the kids and to their parents. The latter is harder than getting 50 FIRST Robotics team members to be quiet and listen at the same time.
