Team 980: Aerial Assist Kickoff!

Team 980 jumped into the 2014 FRC season at its annual Kickoff Event held Sat Jan 4 at our robot build site: 907 Flower St in Glendale.

Team members (mentors and students) introduced themselves in our meet-and-greet session. Mentors described their background, current job and why they are supporting Team 980. Students told members what school they attend and what kind of careers are interesting to them.

We then discussed our team organization structure and build season schedule. Our schedule is shown below.

We watched the Aerial Assist game animation, ate some pizza and assigned our first homework: Read the Game Manual!
