Re: People's opinions..
not a problem at all - esp since you are going to college now
lots of teams have college student mentors - only restriction on you now is you are one of us (mentor) - not a student team member - you would not be able to participate on the team during the matches (cant be the driver or human player...).
BTW as a mentor you are still in the position where FIRST is a privaledge, not a right - Im senseing maybe there is some issue with the team, maybe you are feeling pushed back for some reason?
Talk to the mentors - get their opinion - officially college students ARE welcome to be mentors - but if you feel you have to justify your participating with the other adults on the team, you will have to work that out with them.
Also, some teams are sponsored by one business, and they only accept mentors from that organization (for liability and other reasons) - if your team falls into that catigory, you can be a mentor for another team in your area
and FIRST is ALWAYS looking for volunteers for regional events!
PS: Welcome back! :^)
