FIRST ROBOTICS

Our FRC Team was founded in 2002 with the help of NASA. NASA wanted to expand FIRST in the Clark County School District to improve technical skills in Las Vegas. Clark was included in this initial expansion program and is one of the oldest active FRC teams in the state.

​

THE TEAM

A team consists of students, ages 14–18, willing to put in time outside typical school hours and to do any job to help the team succeed (lots of jobs available for all skill levels and interests). A team also needs 2 or more adult mentors with both technical and non-technical expertise motivated to coach the team throughout the season (and beyond).

​

BUILD SEASON

The official season begins in early January when the season’s Challenge is announced at a Kickoff ceremony. Teams must then create their robot in order to be ready for their competition events. District and regional competition events start in late February and continue through April. Teams that qualify are invited to FIRST Championship, typically held near the end of April.

THE GAME

Renewable sources of energy are everywhere, all the time. Working together in the 2020 season of FIRST®Robotics Competition, INFINITE RECHARGESM, we can support boundless innovation and create a society that’s empowered, inspired, and hopeful.
