At this point ACE is rather small team and therefore does not require a large complicated organization system. As the team grows we'll have to make things a bit more detailed. For now we have three major groups - Technical, Management, and PR. Technical does all the robot stuff (Drive/chassis, manip, electrical/programming, and support) and all of the computer stuff (website, Inventor, and animation), Management does fundraising and the paperwork, and PR is in charge of team image and the Chairman's award. All of the students are in at least two of the major groups, and the mentors rotate between all of the groups. Most people just end up doing a bit of everything, or whatever needs to be done at the time. Most of the time I just use organization into subgroups when we're planning educational stuff specific to different subgroups (ie - the drive/chassis team learning about different types of drives, or the support team working on the cart and crate).

PS - It does seem as though we've discussed this before however I searched and couldn't find anything.
