Having good communication within a team is a vital part of a competition like this. We prioritised having good communication links with each other as well as our sponsors, allowing us to work through any issue we may face collectively.
Team Page: By creating a team page, we are able to share thoughts and ideas, as well as updates on our individual progress with the rest of the team. It also provides a collective space to store important documents for everyone to access.
Meetings: Our group meets once a week to discuss our progress and work through any issues that may have arisen during the week. Meeting face-to-face allows better communication, as well as helping others with different aspects of the competition.
Urgent Messages: If an urgent message needs to be sent during the week, we may call each other to make decisions or work through a problem.
By partnering with companies, we can expand our opportunities and accomplish even more as a team. For example, we spend our sponsorship money on uniform clothing for our competitions. This makes us look put together and professional, helping us stand out from other teams. The money also goes toward transport costs, entry fees, material costs, and other vital expenses that enable us to compete at our best. Our relationship with our sponsors is mutually beneficial; in return for sponsoring us, companies receive promotion via our Instagram, as well as their logo on our car and all team clothing.
