Team 375 has been attending Championships for 3 years now. We have not been drafted in those three years to continue in eliminations. I can honestly say that between the Aim High season and the Rack N' Roll season there was a *huge* difference in the amount of fun that I had and the level of enjoyment of the team in general. When you stop concentrating on the results and start concentrating on the atmosphere and the experience the trip takes on a carefree feel that allows you to have a great time despite your success on the field. Take the time to meet new people from other teams, perhaps even cheer on their alliance during eliminations. Cheer on your division on Einstein. Hang out with other teams after the work day in the pits and on the field. It all works out amazingly at the end.
