copy from Hall of fame submission post:
I am from team 16 and I apologize for any confusion. At the moment, I am a little confused also. I can not find any documentation that clearly states that past chairman's award winning teams can or cannot compete at regionals. Can someone send me a copy of this letter? As far as I know, we have not recieved a letter that says we cannot submit a chairmans award presentation to a regional. The only thing I have found close to this is in the FIRST hall of fame fact sheet, that says "teams are not able to win anoher Chairman's Award, and the Hall of Fame applications will receive separate review by a panel of judges." The assumption is that this pertains only to championships as the rest of the document pertains to championships. I think the judges at Chesapeake would have informed us if this was not allowed unless there was some miscommunication. Judges at St. louis also inquired of our chairman's submission. Does anyone know of documentation that clarifies this that I am unaware of??? Thanks for your help.
