Question ideals in FIRST robotics competitions worth copying

Here is a theoretical question I've been wanting to ask for a long long time.

Imagine another group is trying to come up with a competition. It could be a robotics competition, or other technology related competition... Now, imagine them wanting to be as successful as FIRST and have similar impacts in their participants...

What are some of the things you think they should copy from FIRST? What I am really looking for are some of the ideology that FIRST promote, the best things that teaches the participants a lot about life and growing up. I don't want to list anything right now because I want to see some obvious answers first... And I will narrow my question down a little bit as we goes on with the discussion.

Thanks .
