If that's the way it turns out, just let it be.

I agree with this statement 100%. Its almost like saying we are going to have a 100% (insert any "group" here)... that does not seem very ethically correct if you ask me. Of course there are exceptions such as an all girl’s school or an all boy’s school... then the teams demographic will reflect that.

When it gets broken down it should all be a team full of "people who love FIRST, and want to be there" regardless of anything else.
