I think it is unlikely that this is the OPs implicit alternative, although we will see if/when the OP replies.

I say it is unlikely because I have never met a team that is truly dedicated to inspiring students and changing their communities that acts like a club, maybe I just need to get out more. Every single "inspiring" team that I have met is just that, a team. For example, I highly doubt that almost any Chairman's winning teams would self-describe as a club.

My original question was posed because the OP is describing the club vs team choice in a way that is opposite of my personal experience. In my experience, FRC "teams" that I would describe as clubs focus almost exclusively on the robot.
