"The Champion's Award is the most prestigious award that a team can win. It celebrates the ultimate success of the FIRST mission and FL Core values. A champion is someone who passionately supports a cause. For FLL, our champions passionately inspire and motivate others about the excitement of science and technology, while solveing problems, working as a team, and demonstrating respect and Gracious Professionalism. To be considered for the Champion's Award, teams must perform well in the Project, Teamwork, Robot Design and Robot Performance categories, which are equally weighted. " FLL website.
