This year, we had a log book, and a parent would sign students in and out as students arrived and left.

To be on the team, you had to have at least 60% of official hours, and to go to any competitions, you had to have 80% of official hours.

I think "official hours" was somewhere in the 100-150 range. Figure 3 hours on most weeknights, 8 on Saturdays, and 4 on Sundays for 6 weeks.

You could also get approval to write in any extra hours for work you did outside official hours.

Of course, the real performers put in well over 100% of "official" team hours, especially the last 2 weeks.

Last year, students kept track of their own hours, but that didn't work as well. I also kept track of my hours last year, even though I am not a student, and I put in well over 200 hours. This year, I started a new job, with long hours, so I didn't come close to that, but I was probably not far from 100% considering I also took care of some team stuff off-hours.
