For someone new to it all... it might be hard to jump into the mix especially when the time gets short. Build season not the best of time to take a new member by the hand and teach them what and how to do it. |
The team I was on in high school had alot of people on the team (40+) and a pretty small shop, so it gets crowded fast. We tried to the best we could,
And in order to get the newer kids more involved, we try to spend the preseason teaching the new kids (and returning kids who want to learn) how to work the machines and/or electronics; stuff like that so they can be helpful when build season comes around
