our team captain hasn't been promised a drive team place, how ever having said that. for the three years I've been on the team our team captain has been on drive team. not because he's team captain but because he was the best choice for the job. ether because he was good at working with other teams and stratgy, or drove the robot best.

this year we have not one, not two, but three team captains who share the responsibilities of captain.the responsibilities are running meetings, attend team functions, speaks for the team when a rep is needed for things such as a tv show (our team has been one two), be a respectable role model for other team members (if people are doing something foolish done be part of it), and somewhat keeping order during meetings.

we form our drive team rather late for the most part, its rare that we get a robot done in time for much hands on with the robot. our head mentor handles drive team selection, based on who's had the most experince driving and who works well together. There are no hard feeling among team members, and it avoids self proclaimed drivers this way.
