Foothills Robotics

First Robotics COMPETITION, The Ultimate Sport of the Mind!

FOOTHILLS ROBOTICS IS A FIRST RObotics TEAM
located in Lenoir, North Carolina.
we are a group of HIGH SCHOOL aged students
learning to plan, build, and code robots for FIRST
robotics competitions throughout the state.
Teens are faced with many difficulties and
obstacles while creating their robot though,
such as the strict guidelines it must follow,
tight time CONSTRAINTs, and the limited resources
they have to build with.
