For new coaches eh?

Well my advice is to let the kids be free. I've seen many teams where the coaches run the show and the kids have no fun. Remember, it's about the kids. If they have fun, you will have fun. .

Actually all Lego parts ever are made in the same factory. Let me repeat that. Every Lego piece. Ever. Anywhere. All made in Billund, Denmark. Gizmodo.com (great nerd blog that covers everything from phones to robots, DSLR cameras to steampunk, DIY to NASA) toured the factory and made several great articles. here is my favorite: http://gizmodo.com/search/lego%20tour

Pretty cool to design your own robot from different kits. However, watch the rules for any robot competition, know the type of parts, footprint and power requirements. In the meantime, you can find Tetrix (Pitsco), LEGO, FIRST CAD Library and VEX Protobot model files in SolidWorks and other 3d and 2d file formats on
www.3DContentCentral.com. Last week I saw a robot with a soda bottle attached. Dont spend your time modeling the kit part - when the real goal is to figure out your own assembly design. Marie
