Re: Teams on and off the field

Pretty much every HoF team. You look at the list of HoF teams, and you'll find that they a pillars of the FIRST Community, as well as amazing field competitors. That's not a coincidence. Those are teams that have pushed so hard in their program and the results are not very questionable.

233 and 118 are both teams renowned for their excellence on the field. They are also both active members in their community and do a lot to support FIRST. They are both teams who, in my opinion, could easily be contenders for the World Chairman's Award in the coming years.

Locally, 1511 and 340 are both teams who have done great work on-and-off the field. They're both very involved in their communities, through FLL, robotics demonstrations, and community service. They both have an impressive streak going. 340 has taken the Chairman's Award home from Finger Lakes for about 6 consecutive years now, with a total of 8 under their belt. And it's been quite a few seasons since 1511 has gone without either a Chairman's Award or Engineering Inspiration award. 7 seasons have gone, and they've taken home either the CA or EI for those 7 seasons. Very impressive, considering the team is 8 years old now. They are also both great teams on the field, always being a very competitive team on the field and high pick or captain in eliminations.
