Role of Sponsors at Competition

[FrankJ]

I suspect, by using my internet X-Ray vision, that there is more to this story. I cannot see a sponsor asking for an particular action on the field. Or maybe the drive team was confusing "sponsor" with "mentor". For instance we have mentors on the team who work for & represent some our sponsors. But that is one person wearing two different hats.

Our sponsors are important. Without them, we wouldn't be where we are. If they make a request we will generally bend over backwards to meet it. But when we cannot we will explain the reasons. Good communications are key in all things.
