Don't meet on the weekends.

For the first four weeks or so, my team meets from 3PM to 6PM Monday through Thursday. We don't work on the robot on Friday; we do things like brainstorming and strategizing instead. Those meetings last from 3PM to 5PM.

We don't meet on the weekends or on days when school is off until we hit the last two weeks, when we need the crunch time.

That said, having the weekend off whenever possible is a good idea. Taking a two day breather helps. A lot.
