I disagree with you BIG TIME on this. Since jusst about my 1st event, I have stood up for every award to recognize the achievements of the team receiving the award. Over time, the rest of our students have picked up the habit, and now just about the entire team stands. I did hear a few comments from some of the people sitting above us, which, in my mind, is too bad. I do not intend to change my behavior.
Think about it this way, also - how do you want the crowd to react when YOUR team receives an award?????
Stand up and let the teams know you are excited for them.
