I think this is the key. A building completely dedicated to coopetitive robotics (full fields, bleachers, associated hosting facilities; workshop space enough for multiple teams; auditorium; multiple computer labs; lots of trophy cases)

Also, support for dedicated curriculum. Whether it's a single class, a series of courses, a half or a full day, with dedicated, properly trained instructors & facilitators.

Basically, the same resources that schools already offer for athletics.

Awareness and support. Anything else extra is a bonus.
My bets are actually on a solid website cause if that was grown correctly it would automatically grow more people, having a dedicated space and so on.
