Although between 15 and 25 is a good number, the answer that I would give you is 3. You only NEED 3 people to run a team. 2 Drivers and human player.

Asking other teams how many people they have isn't going to get you an answer about how many people your team needs. Over time you will figure out how many your team can sustain. If you only have 6 oh well.

As for recruiting the only advice I can give is: START WINNING. No one wants to join a team that won't win. So set a standard of at least doing well and people will be on your team like stink on a monkey.
