Competition FIRST
FIRST Robotics Competition
Teams get a common kit of parts and about six weeks to build an industrial-size robot for the season's game. You join through a school or community team rather than applying individually; the team pays the season fee.

What this opportunity is really like
Here’s the short version before you leave Pathfind to investigate the official details.
What you would do
Your team gets a common kit of parts and about six weeks to design and build an industrial-size robot for the season's game.
Why it might be worth your time
The build season is short and team-based, and you join an existing school or community team rather than applying on your own — the team covers the season fee.
Is it a good fit?
For grades 9–12 in engineering and computer science, competing through a registered team.
