FIRST Tech Challenge
FIRST Tech Challenge teams design and build a robot... and compete within a common set of game rules to play an exciting field game and complete the specific season challenge. The robot game changes every season and is always a blast! Student and adult team members are encouraged to bring any skills they already have, like programming, electronics, metalworking, graphic design, web creation, public speaking, videography, and many more. FIRST Tech Challenge welcomes every student, with or without special skills.
