Re: Teams Holding Multiple Spots For Championships

HOF/Legacy teams are counted separately to your district's allocated spots at CMP.

In that instance they will hold two spots, but they will not generate a wildcard for another team.
As per our district point model faq sheet, it says the 6 legacy teams are auto bids from HQ. It specifically says the 24 slots DO NOT include the additional 6. See below.

Finally, moving on to the FIRST Championship:

- 24 teams from New England will go on to the FIRST Championship. This count does not include our 6 Legacy and Hall of Fame teams (FRC 23, 126, 151, 175, 190, 236) who receive auto-bids through FIRST HQ.

- The 24 will allocate automatically as follows (and was discussed in part on Frank’s Blog):

4 Chairmans Award Winners

2 Engineering Inspiration Award Winners

2 Rookie All Star Award Winners
