Re: Convincing athlete to commit to robotics?
Having graduated from a small Minnesota school myself, what you need is more kids and mentors on the team. You need more exposure, can you bring in kids from nearby schools, enlist the help of shop teachers, enlist the help of other teachers. In a school that small all of the folks need to work together, and not compete for the finite number of resources you have. Do you have any local industry, mechanics, farmers, electricians, we always had folks willing to help the school back home.
Casting aspersions on the basketball team as unsuccessful "The basketball team isn't going anywhere(last year the record was 5-15)", isn't an entirely honest argument from a struggling FRC team that finished 60th at your only event this year.
Bring your school and community together to solve your problems, they are larger than one student.
