To go to just the regional/district competitions you had to attend ever mandatory team meeting we had each week plus a certain percentage of the rest of the build season.

To go to the championship(if we signed up to go) you had to take some sort of leadership with the build as well as attend at leas 85% of the build days(we met 6 days a week for 3-6 hours a day depending on the day) and a couple of other qualifications that I can't remember off the top of my head.

Also you have to have good grades, we didn't have an honor roll rule(that seems really really over the top to me personally) but you had to have at least a C average to travel with no failing grades. Also the teacher from the high school who participated on the team would talk to all the students teachers and get exams or homework that they might miss during the competition and we had mandatory study time every night where the students would do homework or take the exams or just study if they didn't have homework or exams to take.
