It would seem somewhat unfair to deny those who are continuing over from 65 a chance at winning a Chairman's Award.
In my estimation, I'd assume that 51 will have it's "own" Chairman's history, and would be allowed to submit for the award, though wouldn't be allowed to rest their laurels upon the work of either 47 or 65. That's just my guess, though.

We retained the combined history of both teams. The HoF status is retained. Also, don't forget that 65 was World Champions in 2003, as well as National semi-finalists in 1997 and 1998, not to mention Ken Patton's WFA in 1999.
Aside from the history, I'm a VERY excited to be part of this team. Going into this year, Ken and I have talked extensively about the two teams, and really there could not be a better fit than 47 + 65. This new team has some incredible potential. I can't wait!
