The Chairman's submission is meant to demonstrate how your team embodies the spirit of FIRST. It should represent what your team has done to advance the ideals of FIRST and promote science and technology in your community.

As for the format, it really does depend on the story you want to tell. Every team is unique, and has their own story and way of representing themselves. You can be as creative as you want, while still abiding by the rules of proper grammar.

I would suggest starting with a list of everything your team has done, and categorizing them. Once you have that, you can select the activities you think are most important and best represent what your team is all about.

Then make sure you emphasize the impact each has had, on your team members, school and community. FIRST is all about impact!

My advice would be to do the short essays and longer essay separately, so it doesn't repeat too much, because a lot of the same things come up in each.

The video is also a very important part of your submission, and you want to make sure you have enough content when it comes time to actually putting it together. Take as many pictures or videos as you can, of EVERYTHING your team does. If possible, assign one person on your team the responsibility of taking pictures and videos.

As has been mentioned, search through the chiefdelphi forum- there has been a lot of great advice given in previous threads as well!
