In reading the rule book, chapter 9.1 (Regional Awards), we are unfamiliar with a couple of things and could use some help please:
1) It appears that "most" of these awards are done "subjectively" and "on-site" by the regional judges with no advanced preparations. Is that correct? What can a team do in advance (e.g. make sure everybody has a good story to tell)?
2) The Regional Rookie All-Star and Regional Rookie Inspiration both seem to NOT require anything in advance except the submission of a rookie version of the Chairman's Award (due via
www.firstawards.org by 2/18.
3) How in general do teams prepare for these on-site awards?
4) Can a team go after the same award at MULTIPLE regional events?
