What is
FIRST Robotics Competition?
Combining the excitement of sports with the rigors of STEAM, FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) teams comprised of students aged 14-18 use technology to build and program industrial-sized robots to play an action-packed, alliance based game on a themed game field.
Guided by adult professionals and supported by sponsors, students learn engineering and problem-solving skills they can apply to real-world challenges today in the future.
FIRST Robotics Competition is more than robots. Students effect positive change within their communities and work to be advocates for STEAM education on the local, state, and national level.
In the 2026 season, REBUILT presented by Haas, a new challenge launching January 10, 2026, teams will use engineering skills and reimagine the past.
