I figured you didn't literally abuse drivers. That would be very bad.

Yesterday at the Long Island FTC Champs, there were a decent number of coaches with clipboard, reading something off of it, and making notes of sorts. I meant to ask if any other people do anything like this.
FTC it's a lot easier to look away from the field because the field is like a quarter of the size and you won't lose track of things. Plus you can probably keep everything in at least your peripheral vision. After action reports probably wouldn't be a terrible idea though; especially if your team is one of the ones that videos every match so you can compare your notes and do additional reviews.

Plus after a couple of regionals, you could start making your very own Driver Manual for current and future students to learn from.
