Ambitious undertaking - good-luck, but John states many truths.
If things don't work out, consider mentoring existing local teams - experienced FIRST mentors should consider this option as it allows the person to customize/balance the amount of involvement with the rest of their life goals. As a "local" team, we would be a stretch, but weekends are prime time involvement, so.... if it doesn't work out, give me a call we have a mentor program for college students.
