Too large of a team?

[sanddrag]

This coming season (2006) is the strangest ever for getting new members on our team. (we just got them). We do have a rather formal application process, but when opened to the whole school (840 students in grades 9-11) for more than two weeks, all we got were 6 applications back. And 5 of the 6 are girls, how about that!?! So anyway, we let them all in. But if we got more than 6 applications, we would have said "sorry" to some of them. That was decided ahead of time. We will also be letting two freshmen join when they start in the fall. That's a total of 8 new members and a total of approximately 11 returning members.

On such a small team, the amount that each person gets out of it is just tremendous; I love it!
