I started a vex team summer of 2015 and I actually really rather liked the year round schedule.

The main reason was that it didn't have too be year round. My students met once a week starting a month after school ended, and ending at our last event. It was refreshingly relaxing to just... teach robotics.

Many teams affiliated with schools however start with the school year, and that works for them too. The year round system lets you make your own build season tailored for your resources.

I still don't know if I would want such a thing for FRC though. One of the big draws for me as a student was the intensity of it. I enjoyed having my life revolve around it for a short period of time and then going back to other things. I'm sure there are others that prefer the opposite end of the spectrum.
