Although we consider ourselves a team, officially we're an "activity", just like the Malvern Theater Society or the Blackfriar Chronicle (school newspaper). Trying to get our school to recognize us as a team would probably first involve getting our school to recognize us much beyond the money the Malvern Father's Club gives us, which was just enough to buy a drill press and a tablesaw this year. Given that everybody started shouting "battlebots" when I mentioned FIRST robotics in economics class the other day (long story), I think we need to increase recognition of who we are before we could be recognized as a team.
