I understand that the Excellence Award is given to the entire club for the Championship-wide Excellence. I also understand that the score of the interview is given to each individual team that qualifies for the Excellence Award.
(referring to https://vexforum.com/t/who-participates-in-excellence-award-at-worlds/23368/1&highlight=excellence)
That being said, I have a question that pertains to having multiple teams without all having qualified for the Excellence Award. If a school has several teams, of which only half the teams qualify for the Excellence Award, do the unqualified teams still participate in the interview?
My assumption is that they would, but they would not qualify for divisional Excellence. Is this assumption correct?
