Get your robotics group classified as a team instead of a club.

I'd be wary of trying to find ways around a school rule. You'd probably be much better off negotiating with the rulemakers, either to get a specific exception for robotics, or to identify a different way for you to get the funding you need without breaking the rules.

(One "different way" might be for a separate parents' organization to do the solicitations, rather than the robotics team itself, but I'd still run it past the school before doing it.)
