Congratulations on Your Incredible Season!




It is with immense gratitude and pride that we want to thank our FIRST Tech Challenge teams, volunteers, coaches, mentors, and parents for such an unforgettable FIRST RELIC RECOVERY Presented by Qualcomm season! This season was amazing, and we couldn�t have done it without each and every single one of you.

We�re so impressed with the creative robots that were built, the high scores that were achieved, the rookie teams that succeeded, and the ethos of FIRST that was passed on to the next generation of our FIRST Tech Challenge community. We finished this season with 5235 teams, which is incredible. 

We want to thank YOU for showing up week after week from our FIRST Tech Challenge Kickoff in September, to our FIRST Championship in April. What a year. YOU are what make the FIRST Tech Challenge community fun, engaging, and successful. You act as ambassadors for FIRST and help new members of the community see the potential in our program and community. Joining FIRST is more than just joining a robotics club, you�re joining a community that will continue to grow and support you throughout your life.

 As we move into our summer break, we want to make a final season ask, please help us share and spread the mission of FIRST over the summer so that we can come back strong and excited for #FIRSTLaunch2019! Happy "off-season"!

AndyMark Will Now be the Source for New FTC Fields and Game Elements

FIRST Tech Challenge is excited to partner with AndyMark on Field and Game Elements for the 2014-2015 Season.  That means you no longer have to build a practice field, but can purchase one from AndyMark and have it shipped to you after Kickoff (no Team pre-orders!). They will offer teams a full or half field option and each kit comes with the Field Setup elements and Game Elements. Don't worry, you can still build a field if you want to! But what will they be? Each year, the Game Design Committee drums up a new element that presents a variety of manipulation challenges for teams to overcome. They've chosen wiffle balls, rings, two varieties of racquet balls, hockey pucks and batons, to name a few.  Since elements are different from year to year, teams must redesign their robots each season to accommodate the new item and the scoring objectives. What do you think this year's element will be?  Leave your guesses below and go to a kickoff event , or go to www.usfirst.org/...
