Re: What Do You Wish You Would Have Known Your Rookie Year?

You don't have to do everything at once. You can check the team out, see what interests you, find out what doesn't and go on from there.

Join Chief Delphi early on, it really helps you get involved with the FIRST family.

Don't be afraid to ask questions or talk to people at FIRST events, I've met some of my best friends that way.

The more outgoing you are the more fun you tend to have, don't be shy ^_^

Find out the websites that would really help you learn about FIRST teams like The Blue Alliance or FIRSTwiki and learn the history of FIRST robotics so you can reference things in the future.

Mentors are amazing people and they put a lot of personal time into the teams, remember to thank them for that.

Dressing up and cheering for your team is a lot of fun.
