Re: How did your team determine drivers?

We run five VEX teams at our school, and have found that drivers that make smart decisions at VEX tournaments tend to make smart decisions at FRC tournaments.

This year we'll have a practice robot to drive around for a few weeks, so we can make sure we have a couple of people really familiar with how to drive.

Everyone on the drive team, however, has to be familiar with the robot and have demonstrated committment, dedication and attention to detail during the build.

Usually the driver will have had some experience on the drive team in previous years, either as second driver or coach, so they will be familiar with queueing and robot start procedures.
