Re: Adults as Coaches on the field

I think you can treat it much like business, sometimes you have a coach (ceo/PM) that has years of experiance, this can be a blessing or a curse. They know the basics how to coach but are adapting to the new game. If you find a student (new hire/PM) they will have only coached this years game. They are basically at the samelevel as the drivers only elected to lead. They communicate in the same generational voice. the downfall is they may not have lead at this pace before and they may not be ready for the chaos of 2min at a FIRST comp. I think allot of it comes down to the people you have in place, it will always be a year to year thing with our team. Do we have a student capable, do we have a mentor capable, who do the students want.
