I agree with all the comments above discouraging you from starting a new team as a student (and you're the only student?)
In addition, it sounds like this team is going to be a one-season team? Just 2016, then you graduate and the team no longer exists?
If you're that set on having your own team- start a VEX or FTC team at least. It's still a challenge to build a successful VEX or FTC robot on your own.
What mentor support do you have? Are you the only student, or will there be more? What skills do you have? What sponsors do you have?

I'm concerned that your failure could mean more than just failure for yourself. It could disenchant sponsors in your community, and create just another failed FRC team that failed to make an impact on it's community.
