Congrats on getting started
Whether you use Labview, C++, or Java, you are bound to have a fun and productive season. Do a little research -- lots of quality info at FIRST website, FIRST Forge website, and individual FRC team websites. Also, try and see if there is another local team that would be willing to share their knowledge to help you get started.
FIRST Forge website in the WPILib (a library of useful robot classes, data, and commands) section has a number of useful documents:
http://firstforge.wpi.edu/sf/docman/..._documentation
The 2012 WPILib Cookbook, C++ Getting Started Guide, Java Getting Started Guide, and WPI Robotics Library Users Guide are four good documents to start on.
Other FRC teams have posted information that will help in getting started:
Team 1114 Simbotics
http://www.simbotics.org/resources/workshops
Team 971 Spartan Robotics
http://spartanrobotics.org/content/g...rc-programming
and

Good luck and keep asking questions
