Love it. I did FLL for 2 years in middle school, then FRC all 4 years of high school. I was really lucky to work with some amazing people on that team, and we took a "good not great" team to "fringe world championship contender" in a couple years. AFAIK it's still an elite team today. It was one of the most important things I've ever done. It set me on a path to where I am today professionally, and I learned a lot about how to work in fast-moving ad-hoc team environments.
