Re: Team 975 is sending out an SOS to the FIRST community

One of the best ways to gain support from school administrators is to inform them of the education opportunities that FIRST offers. Use examples like the 12 million dollars of scholarship available to FIRST students, the hands on experience that you can't emulate in the classroom, the ability to work with professional engineers and establish relationships, and the successes of alumni from the team that were a result of FIRST. Another thing that usually gets their attention is showing them what it means to the students. For example, up until 3 and a half years ago, I played hockey, and I pretty much lived for the game. I had played from when I was 2 years old until I was 14, when I suffered a life threatening injury that prevents me from ever playing again. However, FIRST has given me the opportunity to be a part of a team again. Whenever I tell this story to any adult they empathize and really see what it means to me and my teammates. If they truely understand, they might see to it that at least and FTC team happens. Best of luck to you guys, and I hope everyhing works out.
