This.
Robotics should be treated as a winter sport with some stuff during the spring summer and fall. When students come up to me apologizing for not going saying they were too busy with swimming. I tell them if they want to gain responsibility they have to choose. Some do some don't. This year I want to have a parents meeting early on where we explain to the parents the time commitment that way they know their kid can't sign up for a sport in the winter.
