Re: Cheering, standing ovations, and required team actions during matches and awards

I'm glad that more people regard Team Spirit as an important aspect of FIRST. I've been telling our students for years that "You may lose a match at the competition but you'll never lose your team spirit!" Take it from us, a team who's never won a robotics competition for the first 12 years until just last year. There's nothing worse than a moping team only focusing on winning. As Dean & Woodie say every year we're already all winners making it to the competition.
