Practice??? A great number of teams can only afford one event. This is it. Thousands of dollars and hundreds of hours all ride on a few 2 minute moments of time. No Pressure. 
Then again there is more to this program than wins and loses. There are great students inspired to change the world and gaining the skills to do it behind both winning and losing robots. Your success most likely won't affect someone elses scholarship to college. It is more fun when everything works like it was designed though.

I have no defined complaints, and I have no solution. I simply have mixed feelings. - Andrew Blair [more]
