Pennsylvania FIRST Tech Challenge: PA Rookie Qualifying Robotic Competition

FIRST FTC robotic competition featuring 24 new student teams and their 18 inch robots competing to qualify for the Mid-Atlantic Regional Finals. FIRST Robotics: Sport of the Mind!

FIRST ( For Insiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) is an international organization which fosters interest in science and technology in young people from kindergarten through high school. With volunteers from the community and industry, students learn skills that will prepare them for careers in engineering, science and technology. They also learn life skills that will make them leaders in their communities.
There are at least 6 area teams competing from Pottstown High School, Chester Springs, North Coventry, East Vincent, and Owen J High School. Structured like sporting events with the pulse of a rock concert, FIRST makes learning fun.
