Drive Team

[MrJohnston]

We are not taking the technical specialties of our drive team into account when choosing the drive team. We always use a student as coach - who we chose early. He's been mentored all fall in the fundamentals of strategy and we've worked to show ways those fundamentals have applied in the past to FRC games. He's been involved intimately in the design of the robot from the beginning and has been the primary "rules" student. He's spending lots of time on YouTube and Chief Delphi learning all he can about this year's game.

WE are in the process of choosing the rest of the drive team. All active students can apply. They first must show a full knowledge of the rules by taking a test. Thereafter, we choose six to "train" daily as drivers. Of those six, we'll choose three to join the coach.
