Re: Practicing after Ship - pros & cons

If a team has the resources to practice, it's probably best that they utilize such resources. Practicing after ship, while definitely tolling on one's schedule, does not even begin to touch at the physical and mental strains during the 6 weeks of build season. If a student spends 6 weeks balancing their schoolwork and their robotics work, there is no reason why they cannot manage a few more weeks of practice, which is significantly less tolling on one's schedule. If a student is fails to balance their schoolwork and their robotics work in the 6 weeks of build season (after being mentored, pushed to work harder, and so-on-and-so-forth), they should not be on the robotics team for those 6 weeks, because schoolwork comes first.
