Re: Regional Chairmans or Regional Championships?
Same reason I posted in the old thread, but here it is again.
These are my opinions and in no way express the opinions and feelings of FRC or FVC 116, or any other of its members
At this time I would prefer a Regional Championship. That being said, I would be thrilled to win either award, and I (and the rest of 116) are working feverishly to win both awards.
The point of the Chairman's Award is not to win it, but rather to strive to win to win it. The improvements and efforts a team makes are the real goal of the award, not the trophy. Beyond that, I don't need a judge to tell me what I have done to spread science, technology, engineering is meaningful and has been successful, I already know that. I know the efforts of my team, and I know my team has made a huge difference. Another team at my regional may or may not have made a larger difference, but that really doesn't matter that much to me. I don't need an outside arbiter to tell me what I already know. My efforts have already been validated.
