Re: Adult coach?
FIRST allows the role of either an adult (mentor, teacher, adult volunteer) or a student.
How teams decide to do it is most obvious in these posts, by some good explanations and team philosophies. Its evident that students gain in either situation.
As an advocate for allowing adult coaches, I played soccer for many years as a kid. Our coaches were adults. Do we say that we should have had one of our peers, coach us instead, so that we get the "full" learning experience? Does having an adult coach us, lesson the learning experience for how we played on the field? Either way, the drivers are students who are playing the game, and not the adults.
