What is FIRST Robotics?

The FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) is a mentor-guided program that empowers high school students to become innovators, problem-solvers, and leaders through hands-on experiences in engineering and technology. In just a few short weeks, teams work together to design, build, and program robots that take on exciting annual challenges, fostering not only technical skills but also creativity, teamwork, and resilience. Founded by inventor Dean Kamen, FRC is part of his larger vision “to transform our culture by creating a world where science and technology are celebrated and where young people dream of becoming science and technology leaders."

OUR MISSION

Our mission is to bring FIRST Robotics to Maricopa, where no FRC team currently exists. Many underprivileged kids in our community never get the chance to discover their potential in STEM, and we want to change that. By starting a team, we hope to build a lasting tradition that inspires innovation, teamwork, and leadership—while making sure that students of every race, gender, and background have the opportunity to be part of something greater in STEM.
