Re: My team has close to no dedication

Wow, that really bites. Are there any teams nearby that could invade your team and whip those freshman into shape? Do they have a good concept of what FIRST is? How good it will feel if they do well? Try showing them competition video and pictures, to get them phsyched. Show them pics of what other people have done.

That being said, you NEED mentors. If these have a legitamate reason to ignore you, find others. If they don't, crank up the guilt.
