The motto for Team 357, Royal Assault is "Dare Mighty Things". The motto comes from an inspirational speech given by President Theodore Roosevelt.

" Far better is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in the grey twilight that knows not victory nor defeat." ~ Teddy Roosevelt

The motto represents the team's philosophy both on and off the field. :D

Our motto: "The end is just the beginning..."

Re: Team Mottos
 

At first, we had the motto "It's a robot thing" Throughout the year, while working on Chairman's Award, we thought really hard about it and added to small words. "It's not just a robot thing" This reflects the outreach that our team does, and our everyday attitude- FIRST Isn't just about the robots, it's about Gracious Professionalism, co-opetition, and outreach also.

As of 2004, 1293's motto was "We're on a mission from Bob."

(Bob, for the record, is our overbuilt, window motor, electrical-tape numbered robot from last year. Which we finally pried the plexiglass top from tonight. It's only been...seven months.)

There have been rumblings of changing that, but if I were a betting man, I'd put my money on the above.

Our team motto is
We build People

And the "Welcome to the Garden" saying, which I thought was very appropriate to a team who's main mascot and theme is a flower.

Let's hear it for co-ordination!

Re: Team Mottos
 

why not be funny about your team's motto while still "saying" what your team reflects?? :D

Re: Team Mottos
 

"improvise, adapt, overcome" Which is what we are always having to do.

"We wish we may, we wish we might, have this robot finished tonight!" :rolleyes:

how about "hurricanes- we may blow but we don't suck"

Re: Team Mottos
 

Actually, one of my personal favorites is the motto of the Space Systems Lab at the University of Maryland. It is not a motto adopted by any FIRST teams (yet), but it is SO appropriate!

"Building the technology of tomorrow - sometime late tonight!"

Re: Team Mottos
 

Back in 1997 when we were starting our team, we selected "We Really Bite!" in reference to the bite of a Gila Monster.

Over the years we have evolved into, "If selected, we will do whatever you ask of us or leave parts of our robot on the floor trying!

I am not sure that the motto should become the team mission statement. Make the motto lively so that other teams will notice you. As a rookie, getting noticed is one of the most important parts of a competition.
