wow your guys' teams practice alot...
our works that everything you do is by yourself studying, building the whole deal. So we have meetings once a week for maybe 10 minutes after school to assign people to events for the upcomming competition. I don't think my coach knows my name or knows how any of my building events work and I regularly place and get 1st xD We always go to state and usually get 3rd or 4th (one spot off from nationals)....

I would love to have a school where the coaches helped/its a actual club xD

We just changed SO from short afterschool meetings into a class this year and our place at states improved from nearly last (47thish) to 14th.

I really wish we had it as a class, but for now it's after school. It would be better if it were during school hours, since there are some people who can only stay up until a certain time after school.
