The Chairman's Award isn't about the connection between the students and the corporation, it's about the true meaning of FIRST. Losing their sponsor and persevering through the hardships shows a grit and determination characteristic of a great team.

The Chairman's Award goes to teams that demonstrate a strong bond with their sponsors, community, teachers, or each other. Basically, it's a way to demonstrate that your team realizes that there's a lot more to FIRST than putting together a robot and running it around on the field until you win.
