[Loose Screw]

I was in a very similar position. I was the driver and build captain my senior year, and then it just stopped. I went to college for mechanical engineering, but I needed something to fill the void. My FRC team, 1023 Bedford Express, has a policy of recently-graduated alumni only being able to come to practices once every week to make sure we focus on college.

With FRC not being an option, I went to FTC. I mentored, then co-coached, a jr high school FTC team, the Loose Screws. This filled the void, while also teaching me new ways to go about engineering. It is very different going from the one building the robot to teaching jr. high kids to do the same. However challenging, this has been a very rewarding experiance.

I would recommend mentoring or even coaching a jr high FTC team. If your school doesn't have one, try seeing if you can help make one.
