Minimum age for drivers and feeders?
I read on a few teams websites that only "pre-college" students or seniors can be feeders or drivers. Is this an individual team rule or a rule required by FIRST? I skimmed over the manual and didn't see anything relating to it.

Re: Minimum age for drivers and feeders?
If you look at the glossary, DRIVER and FEEDER are both defined as pre-college students. The COACH may be a student or adult mentor.

Yes, thats required by FIRST.
Apparently, there is no hard lower limit for age as well. I was an 8th grader as our copilot last year. First approved it after an email too. I did take classes at the high school though, so im not sure how big of a difference that made. |

The drivers and human player have to just be pre-college.

Re: Minimum age for drivers and feeders?
This has been asked before so I'm linking the thread.

Re: Minimum age for drivers and feeders?
I know of at least one team that starts their drivers in middle school. It's a brilliant idea, your drivers are guaranteed to have quite a few years of experience all through high school.
