Team officers

[legogeek24]

We have a fairly small team compared to many, and we elected two general captains this year to oversee cooperation between groups and help lead the team meetings. Inside each subgroup (programming, chassis, manipulator, electronics, etc), a group leader was appointed based on experience, and was designated to teach the other members of the group how to perform the tasks assigned to the group. We didn't have a very strict organizational structure, and there was a lot of merging between groups to get things done, but hey, we made it to Championships! While strict organization is good in theory, we've discovered it to be difficult to carry out throughout the season. The best advice I've seen is if something isn't working, don't be afraid to fix it. What works on paper often doesn't in real life.
