Re: We need your Pros and Cons
In this conversation with your local administrators, please don't paint future teams into a corner by describing "robotics" as a single facet of one program, or as a single program (VRC, or FRC, or FTC, or BEST, or FIRST, or ...).
They all are student-robotics competitions ("robotics"), and hopefully all will satisfy the definitions your local admins are using.

But, as a mentor I should caution you that FIRST is not about you its about the students. - SomeoneKnows [more]
