Question: Double Ticket to Worlds teams?
 

How many teams have gotten both Chairman's and First Place in the competition at any First Event? I know of one team that has done it this year, but was just curious of how many have done it, and when they accomplished such a recognizable feat.

1023 did it at the FiM Southfield district in week 1.

So far, 135, 245, 1710, 2137, 2283, 2974, and 3562 have both earned the chairman's award and won the competition at a single event. 234 earned the chairman's award at one event and won a different event. 5687 has earned rookie all star and rookie inspiration, and won the competition at both events they have been to.

The Double Ticket happens a lot although it seems more frequent in some Districts compared to Regionals. Most common being Winner/CA but there have been several Winner/EI & Winner/RAS over the years which also double qualifies a team for the World Championship.

I believe 1114 holds the record for pulling it off the most by both winning the event and receiving the Chairmans award at: 2006 Waterloo, 2007 Waterloo (Engineering Inspiration), 2008 Waterloo, 2009 Greater Toronto Regional, 2010 Waterloo, 2011 Greater Toronto East, and the 2012 Greater Toronto East regionals.

7 straight years is a huge feat.

I know that Simbotics 1114 has done it several times as well as Walton Robotics 2974

Re: Question: Double Ticket to Worlds teams?
 

Keep in mind though that winning these at the district level is not an automatic ticket to Worlds

Re: Question: Double Ticket to Worlds teams?
 

1710 came away big this weekend in Kansas City. They already had pre-qualified by winning Engineering Inspiration in their division at World last year. In addition, they were on the winning alliance and won Chairman's.
