Each season's team operates like a small startup, with each member leading their part of planning and execution.
Every member contributes unique skills to build themselves and each other up year over year.
Teams compete at regional and state levels, with opportunities to advance to world championships.
Our teams are structured to provide diverse learning opportunities:
Design and build robot chassis, mechanisms, and moving parts
Code autonomous routines, sensor integration, and driver controls
Wire motors, sensors, and control systems safely and efficiently
Analyze competition data and develop winning game strategies
Create 3D models, prototypes, and technical documentation
Community engagement, social media, and team presentation
