Really, just get a "team-owned" mop. If practice sessions leave any marks on the floor, clean them up yourselves and don't leave them behind for the janitorial staff. You will make friends with them, they will appreciate it, and everything should be cool. The staff at our school have been wonderful. We got them involved many years ago with what we were doing. We let them drive the robot around and promised to always clean up our messes before they would ever have to. Ever since then, they have been very accommodating of us.
