Re: What is the minimum and ideal size for a rookie team?
I think size is pretty irrelevant, however student to mentor ratio is. In an ideal world, I would like to see a 1:1 or 1:2 ratio (mentor to student), but I think the 1:4 on my old team was sufficient. As long as your students are motivated and have someone to help guide them along the path to success, you should be good.
