Make Scouting Fun?

[Tyler_Kaplan]

I think that your team culture will have a lot to do with it. When I was on a student on 2085, there was always a stigma surrounding scouting, that only team members who had nothing else to do 'had' to scout. It made scouting a chore, and therefore people always held some resentment to it.

On 1678, because we pick our travel team we have students who are there to scout, and that is their job. I think it's important that the students know that the data they take is very important. Both for our alliance selection and match strategy, we rely on it heavily. When students feel that their job is both appreciated and very important I think they will try harder at it. People will care more about what they're doing if they know it's important.
