Good idea.

A Lathe must be mounted firmly to the ground (e.g., not on wheels) and must be kept absolutely level (better than 0.001" in a foot) for it to "turn true" (operate accurately).

Inexperienced users can badly damage the lathe. Tooling will be damaged even by experienced users. Consider how this will be handled.

Scheduling use can get sticky; there's only so much time during build season.

Other ideas: Sell it and donate $ to some team. Keep it and make parts for a few teams. Give it to a team, who will let you (and maybe others) use it. Just ideas...
