Becoming Competitive

I will add this to the responsesby you have gotten so far.
One of the things that I noticed on our team when it came to growing the numbers of students is there is a misconception that it is all about building a robot. Granted that is a large part but...
To attract students that might not be into the design and build part, make sure you put out there that your team could use a graphic design person or two (make fliers, design t-shirts) maybe some students that have a mind for business ( defiantly) need that, perhaps someone wants to get into law later on seems like a great person to make heads or tails of the rules and ask any questions to gdc that may need clarification.
To me there is a place for pretty much everyone on an FRC team, it really comes down to how you sell it to students.
