Go to Post everyone in FIRST has to do the cha cha slide at least once per season to get it out of their system. Now I can go back to doing it in the privacy of my own car (if you see a red Jeep in CT swerving back and forth don't worry, it's just me doing the slide...)! - KathieK [more]

Re: Why do team's fold?

I don't have any data on hand to reference, but I can give you my opinion after having been a FSM for 5 years....

Number one reason a team folds is the loss of a primary mentor or teacher leaving no one left to lead the team.
