Elena,
I'd recommend you take one of the online courses that you can find free on coding and take it now. During the summer (after all the spring ball sports have ended) meet with the kids weekly and let them learn how to code and start working with the stuff you bought for last season..building the models and working thru the manuals on creating a project and Core Values.
 
Spending 6-7 hours on the course now means you are at least 2 steps ahead of the kids come summer. :-) By the end of the summer, some of them will have surpassed your coding abilities, but that's fine, too. ;-)
I just googled and took a course comprised of powerpoint videos created by a couple of college kids who had been on winning LEGO Robotics teams.
Have fun!
Kelly

Hello,


I am new to First Lego league. I am actually new to robotics. I want to start a team with my children and a few friends. I bought everything last year but it was too late so we could not complete things or join any competition.
 I would appreciate any advice with regards to the process, how to join competitions, etc. We live in Washington, DC so, if someone knows of a high school student, college student or anyone in the list who would be interested in coaching, please, let me know. 
Thank you very much! 
The ocean theme seems so so fun!
Have a great weekend,
Elena
