Re: Adult coach?
We've always had student coaches on the field for every match. It is just something that seems to work with our team. With a different team... with a different robot... or in a different situation, we would do it differently. I am really glad that FIRST gives teams the choice to use either students or adults in this role.
What I would really like to see, however, (and maybe this goes on at off-season events) is a mentor drive team vs. mentor drive team match... I think after a season of receiving "helpful tips" from us mentors, the students might enjoy seeing how closely we followed our own advice! And the mentors might have a better appreciation of exactly how challenging driving the machine and sticking to strategy in competition really is. I mean... it looks pretty easy from the stands....
