What is FIRST?

FIRST, For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology, is a fantastic program that gives students hands-on experience in engineering and technology. Students develop skills with machinery; generate ideas for solving difficult problems; produce results under time pressure; work together as a team; and learn “gracious professionalism” as they compete with teams from other schools.

Every September, FIRST Tech Challenge (FTC) releases a new challenge and every team then designs, builds, and tests a robot to compete against other teams. Team 11752 has been building robots since 2016 to compete in the Central South Illinois division.

More information can be found at the FIRST Website (national) and at the Illinois Website.
