Re: We need a second build season
We have another season locally - OCCRA. It was set up to be simpler than FIRST, to attract teams that might not have the resources to enter FRC.
Robots are all student-built. There is no autonomous mode; teams can use the controllers with little or no programming. There are limits on the kinds of tools that can be used, so you don't need a fancy shop.
I would challenge teams that think they need more to investigate setting up a local competition, and invite new schools into the fold. Some of them may get so excited they join FIRST. It's another way of doing our "homework" assigned last year.
