Israeli team asking for volunteers to drive their robot at Champs

[ktress357]

Hi, my name is Kyle Tress, and I'm a dean’s list finalist from last year on team 357. I talked to my team and if you would like we have 3 team members and 2 mentors which would be more than happy to help out. I am one of the team members that would like to volunteer. I have about 3 ½ years of regular season driver team experience, and about 3 years of off season drive team experience. Of those years 3 of the years I was driver. Most of my experience is with Maccum drive seeing how our team has used it every year but one in the time I have been on the team. I have also worked in the pit on my team for the past four years. The other team member has about 1 ½ years of off season operator experience. He has also about 3 years of experience of working in the pits. The third team member has about 3 years of experience working in the pit and has had experience being human player for about the last 2 years. All of the students have been on the team for the past four years.

The one mentor has about one year experience of coaching and about two years experience of working with the students in the pit. The final mentor has never been coach but has worked with the students in the pit for many years. If you need two more students to help out to work in the pit, I may be able to get some of the first and second year members of our team to help out, but I’m not positive if they can yet. If you would like any of us to volunteer and help out, we would be more than happy to. If you have any questions, just let me know.

All just an idea, but if in the end you pick a single team to volunteer, you may want to try and ask FIRST if they could put you in the same division and have your pits next to each other. I’m not sure if they would go for it, but I know it would make it a lot easier for the team who is picked to volunteer.

Thanks,

Kyle Tress
