Ashley, this is very perceptive of you to recognize after having just completed your rookie season! This is something that everyone in FIRST recognizes as an issue. There are many, many people reaching out to veterans who are falling off the radar screen, while also trying to mentor rookie teams. I think I can say that if someone hears about a team that may be struggling (regardless of its age), either point them in the direction of your area's FIRST Senior Mentors or Regional Directors or state/regional FIRST organizations or NEMO, or let someone from one of those categories know about the team so a contact can be made.
