What gets a blue banner?

[Micah Chetrit]

Hello,
I have a simple question, I couldn't find the answer, but I may have missed it. What awards at the regional level get blue banners?
Thanks,
Micah

Regional Chairman's Award.

Regional Winner.

That is all.

Engineering Inspiration has an option to purchase a blue banner, as well - but they do not get it at the regional.

Actually, you can purchase blue banners for all awards, or even no award at all.

How reliable is this site? Have you dealt with them before?

We haven't ordered from them, but my understanding is these are the people that make The Banners.

That's news to me. Is there a way to do it through FIRST or do we have to through that somewhat sketchy blue banner website posted above for $200 (that seems rather exorbitant for a blue piece of fabric with words on it)

Those are the official "guys" for banners.

If you like, you *can* have a banner made locally, possibly for less money - just be wary of the FIRST logo and copyright, OK?

We have had 'fake' banners made - about 1/4 size and very non-standard text - as a memento for mentors. I have one in my workshop, depicting Team 1676's awards for 2012. And no logo.

Unless I'm mistaken, don't division wins, world champions and FIRST Hall of Fame teams get blue banners in addition to the regional wins and chairman's'?

Yup, banners are awarded for those three awards at the Championship level. The original question was:

Ah, sorry about that. Should've read into it better.

[Chris Fultz]

This is who makes the banners for the IRI and they are great to work with.

What are banners awarded for and where/how do you get them?
Came close to our first win.
Thanks

Regional Winner and Chairman's Award Winner are the only officially awarded banners by FIRST.
