Why choose FRC instead of FTC?

[JaneYoung]

I suggest:

- a business plan that contains short term and long goals

- a comprehensive list of the scholarships available and an understanding and appreciation of their value and the opportunities that they afford

- a well thought out plan addressing sustainability concerns. These can include the financial, time, and commitment concerns. They should include looking to the future with regard to the team development and its expectations of the school/district such as a space to build and practice in and financial support.

These are some of the areas that you and the team should look at and spend some time thinking about. You should prepare yourselves well and address the concerns of the administration in a professional and informed manner.

It's about more than the robot. Much more.

P.S. I would never view the FTC teams as peewee leagues and I think it is an insult to do so. I also have trouble with the JV/Varsity thinking. The FTC teams work hard and their efforts should be respected and recognized for what they are, who they are, and how they inspire. And they do inspire.
