Leadership: How to Win Awards
Awards are a big part of FIRST. These awards are for recognizing skills and attitudes that FIRST admires.
To better build these skills we want to be going for as many awards as possible.
In addition to building ourselves by striving for these awards, we advance in the competitions and win trophies and recognition for doing well in these categories
