Last year was our rookie year, so I don't have a lot of experience with captain selection, but I do have experience with working with students. We have a large school that participates also in FTC. This year we took five teams to the competition, with five different captains. From watching the students during FTC build and competition, this gives me an idea how the students will behave as captain during FRC. This way I can not only select an overall team captain, but also leaders for the subdivisions. I do only choose a senior for the position, because they are the ones going on to college and in need of scholarships. It worked well last year and has been a good system so far for this year.
