Re: Multiple teams from one high school?
I kinda fear this happening on our team if it grabs hold. We're three schools...although one has a rather small presence due to distance and the size of the school.
If a split happens, I guess the wise thing to do would be to do one of two things with the number...
1) Let the school with the larger presence on the team (whether it be with students, mentors, or facilities) keep the number, then grandfather over any students who wish to stay with the current team until graduation, or...
2) Drop the number, create two teams from scratch, and split accordingly.
Neither is really smooth...I guess this is one of the problems FIRST has. But it's doable, and it's a good problem to have, IMHO. After all, the more the merrier (and the more fun the friendly rivalry gets, especially if you've got Irmo and Dutch Fork (two of the schools on our team) proverbially slugging it out.)

I find this ironic. In English class our teacher's tell us how there is symbolism and such, and we don't understand it or think its there. Then FIRSTer's get a Game Hit, and we think EVERYTHING is a symbol and has some significance. - akoscielski3 [more]
