FIRST Tech Challenge Prep.

Are you ready to design, build, and compete in the world of robotics? The First Tech Challenge (FTC)- an international robotics program, is all about innovation, teamwork, and technical skill—and there’s no better place to get ready than at the STEAM Varsity Makerspace! Whether you’re a rookie or a returning competitor, this high-energy, hands-on workshop will give you everything you need to sharpen your skills and take your team to the next level.

In this immersive workshop, you’ll have access to cutting-edge tools, expert guidance, and a collaborative environment designed to help you succeed. It’s time to turn your ideas into reality and get your robot ready for competition!

What You’ll Learn and Do:

Innovative Robot Design: Learn how to create a robot from the ground up. Using 3D printer and other makerspace tools, you’ll bring your robot vision to life. Prototype key components, like custom parts, mechanisms, and even unique designs that give you the edge in the competition.

Programming Made Simple: Get hands-on experience with Java and Blockly, the two main languages for FTC programming. Write code to control motors, use sensors, and create autonomous strategies. Test your code in real time and see how your program impacts your robot’s performance. You’ll leave with the skills to troubleshoot and debug like a pro!

Game-Ready Strategy Development: In FTC, it’s not just about having a good robot—it’s about having a winning strategy. We’ll help you develop strategies that play to your robot’s strengths, whether it’s speed, precision, or agility. Learn how to plan for every match, adapt on the fly, and dominate the field.

Teamwork and Leadership: FTC is a team sport, and effective collaboration is key. Through interactive exercises and real-world challenges, you’ll hone your leadership, problem-solving, and communication skills. Together, you’ll overcome obstacles and come up with creative solutions. And we’ll emphasize Gracious Professionalism—working together, supporting other teams, and celebrating every success.

Mock Competitions and Practice Matches: You won’t just learn the theory—you’ll practice what you’ve learned in real-world settings. Participate in mock competitions where your team can test its robot and strategy. Practice running your robot through the actual game tasks in a competition-like environment, with the guidance of experienced mentors.
