Ed,
Jenny's link has a lot of info in it. The judges are coming for any award that is presented at that regional except the awards that are judged off site, like Woodie Flowers, animation, team website, etc. I recommend to team mentors that when a blue shirt shows up, you should take a giant step out of the pit top keep from succumbing to the temptation of saying something. The judges really want to talk to students so make sure your students know about the team, the robot, strategy, etc. A judge cannot make a decision with a shoulder shrug. They want to hear about your successes and how you overcame things that didn't work.
