Re: 2015 Chairman's Predictions

I'm never really sure how to feel about this. There are so many great teams on the list year in and year out, and it's really hard to get a grasp on all the great things they do, let alone pick one. Not to mention, there is a lot more that goes into it than just what they have accomplished and how many times they have won. For me, being a chairman's team is, in part, about making the goals of FIRST the goals of your team, and embedding them in the culture of your team and every single thing that you do. It's something that's really hard to gauge without getting to know and interact with each team on a personal level.

And a lot of it has to do with strength of submission. As an example, I think I've watched 27's Chairman's Video from last year over 100 times. It's that good.

That being said, I would like to give some recognition to some teams that I have worked with, encountered, or that have personally inspired me that I think could win it:
  • 987 - HIGHROLLERS
  • 2614 - MARS
  • 3132 - Thunder Down Under
  • 2468 - Team Appreciate
  • 1311 - Kell Robotics
  • 1241 - THEORY 6
