Be aware that just like with the robot competition matches, these times are estimates - they were running ahead of schedule and came and got us early.
At Central Florida, there were only 9 teams competing for chairman's award; they posted the time slots late Thursday afternoon, 15 minutes apart starting from 9:30 am until 11:30 am Friday, in numerical team order. They were running a little ahead but one of our team leaders was still on the field with a match, so they let us wait until our designated time when he was available. (We had an alternate identified but I preferred to have the team leader present).

We had 2 judges and a very narrow table, so the presenters were able to get pretty close to the judges while going through the material. It went very well even though we didn't win Chairman's (We received a judges award). We received a feedback sheet that said keep doing what you're doing.
