Re: 2016 Chairman's Award Winners
 

Mumble mumble.... Trust me, Chairman's varies heavily based on region...

Re: 2016 Chairman's Award Winners
 

Definitely would love that info! Send it our way!



I'll definitely agree that there are some pretty obvious (and major) regional variances, but Chairman's winners seem less likely to come out of absolutely nowhere than EI (at least, at events I've seen).

Re: 2016 Chairman's Award Winners
 

I agree! There are very drastic differences with both awards, but Chairman's is much easier to at least narrow down to a few teams no matter which event you go to, where as EI sometimes comes out of nowhere (which isn't a bad thing, just an observation). There are obviously outliers and exceptions with both of these, however.

Re: 2016 Chairman's Award Winners
 

From what I've observed, it often comes out of nowhere because teams that have never submitted Chairman's before/are submitting seriously for the first time often do not win Chairman's right off the bat.

Re: 2016 Chairman's Award Winners
 

This is where those regional differences come in-- for some areas, EI often looks like second place Chairman's. In others they seem entirely separable. I've seen teams that submit every year for Chairman's win EI and teams that have never and aren't ever planning on submitting. It's a much harder predictive challenge than Chairman's, which is plenty difficult already.

Re: 2016 Chairman's Award Winners
 

Congratulations on all of your awards and accomplishments, especially the EI award. You folks are always the frontrunner for that award. Must be nice getting that Championships paid for year after year.
Ironicallly, we have never won that award in our 17 year history at a regional, but suprisingly won it at Championships in 2008.

See you at Championships.

Re: 2016 Chairman's Award Winners
 

Your program is at such a different level, hence your HOF chairman's.

We wouldn't be a FRC team had you not done all the great work on promoting FIRST throughout our state for so many years and much more. We work as hard as we can to be a chairman's worthy team and our near misses thankfully earn us the EI. The EI's NASA grant have definitely contributed to our ability to attend the championships which in turn has created our students drive to keep working hard on the chairman's award.

Thanks for all your hard work for FIRST. Many teams can contribute their success to your team.

See you at championships. Still dreaming of the Einstein Hawaiian Alliance!

Imua Waialua!

After seeing and playing many matches against so many teams this year....359,368,3880 could make Einstein in one of the 8 divisions. I mean that.:)
