Well, many different views to take on this. If I remember correctly when I became driver in May of 2001, we only used one coach in my first competition. I don't remember if it was the coach's decision (the previous driver) or if there wasn't anyone there to do it. I didn't mind only having one coach, it kept things sinplilar. However, I see the view that having a second one, and have it mandatory to be a high school student allows not only for others to have the floor experience but also learn how to be a coach for the future. Right now, I am undecided either way, because I will never have to worry about it as a driver. My coach will still be in college next year, and I know he is more than willing to stick with our floor team next year. However, I have already run into the problem of having no one else know what to do as coach, so when we go to NASA/MD State Fair, we will have to have someone step in for him, because they will not allow non high school students to coach. So, if FIRST were to change the coach rule, allow teams to have two, however, the second mentor badge should be restricted to high school students so they can learn.
