Keep in mind that you are only allowed one regional submission per year:
As in the past, teams may only submit at one Regional competition for judging. Teams submitting for both the Chairmans Award and the Woodie Flowers Award should note that both awards are judged at the same event. Students working on the Woodie Flowers Award submission and those team members working on the Chairmans Award submission should coordinate to select the best event for the team.
Also, it is good practice to prepare a Chairman's submission even if you don't expect to earn it (or are ineligible), as per 5.4.1.
