No. The current plan has a separate category of awards called "FIRST Culture Transforming Awards", which includes Chairman's, Rookie, EI, Woodie Flowers Finalists, Enterpreneurship and Autodesk Visualization. Winners of these awards at Districts will advance to State
without their robot. (Unless the robot also qualifies by scores.) The teams will be judged separately at State for advancement to Atlanta: 3 State Chairman's, 1 State EI, 2 State Rookies, 3 WFFA's.
The whole thing will be similar to how the WFFA worked in the past. Regional WFFA's advanced to Atlanta, whether or not their team qualified.
