First Robotics (FRC)
What is First Robotics?
First Robotics combines the excitement of sport with the rigors of science and technology. According to the firstinspires.org website, FIRST Robotics Competition is the ultimate Sport for the Mind. High-school student participants call it “the hardest fun you’ll ever have.”
Under strict rules, limited time and resources, teams of students are challenged to raise funds, design a team "brand," hone teamwork skills, and build and program industrial-size robots to play a difficult field game against like-minded competitors. It’s as close to real-world engineering as a student can get. Volunteer professional mentors lend their time and talents to guide each team. Each season ends with an exciting FIRST Championship.
About Us
The THS Robodogs, team 7676, was founded in 2018. During our first season, the team was awarded the Rookie Inspiration Award. We were unable to compete the following two years due to Covid, and after a period of rebuilding, have a team of 17 students. Anyone is welcome to join!
The 2024 season was our most successful yet! Our team worked diligently during the build season and worked well with teams at District events. At our second competition, the team was selected for an alliance. They worked well together and finished as the runners-up at the Albany event.
