Well, not
horribly cocky...
Welcome to the forums Jordan. As you know, you are very lucky to have such a sponsor, but Elgin is completely correct. Just be ready in case something happens and your sponsor won't be able to be as generous next year (not meant to sound threatening
)
Some advice from me...
My team is different from most teams in that we are not associated with a high school. I think we have 12 local high schools represented within our team - all meeting at DuPont facilities. One of our problems because of this last year was not so much with the robot or competition (which you have read about), but with the team's sense of togetherness (awwww). But seriously, due to the segregation of our team into subteams, we weren't very close outside our own groups. Team building exercises help people get to know one another and generally produce a more open atmosphere which is key in getting new ideas out of people during brainstorming. So, in sum, be sure everyone is comfortable with one another and knows that they have something to contribute.
Good Luck to you and your team, Jordan!
Bring on the competition! And of course the dancing. :D - booton [more]
