Yeah looking back now saying it has full support in FRC does really send a false message.

Because of this and reading other replies, since your programmers are all up and coming, I actually would recommend Java because chances are something is going to go wrong at competition and there won't be guaranteed help.

However, have them look at both. Python may look better at first just due to its simpler syntax, but Java will allow for more immediate help if needed.
