Who is team ####?
I created this thread because i feel like there are so many wonderful teams out there that i know nothing about!
So, in an effort to get to know more FRC teams, i think it's a good idea if everyone posts a little about their team! Post as little/as much as you want, anything would be great. A team picture would be great! I am a part of team 1559, Devil Tech. We come out of Victor NY, and compete every year in the Finger Lakes Regional, and an additional "travel" regional. We typically stand at around 45 students, 20 mentors (this year being no exception). ![]() Devil Tech at their 2011 Buckeye Regional victory. Last edited by Sean Raia : 29-12-2011 at 14:08. |

Re: Who is team ####?
FRC 3929 The Atomic Dragons
We are the students of J.R. Masterman Laboratory and Demonstration School! We are a new rookie team that was formed during the fall of 2011! Of course, we are hoping to make it far into the FIRST Robotics Competition, and build a robot along the way that can help us in this goal. More importantly, we're a group of students who are looking to strengthen our relationships with club members, and work together to build a robot, raise funds, and have fun! ![]() www.atomicdragons.com Last edited by staplemonx : 29-12-2011 at 15:58. |

Re: Who is team ####?
The members of FIRST Robotics Team 1583 are different than members of other teams. Coming from all over the state of Colorado, they made poor choices, engaged in delinquent behavior, broke the law and were arrested. Seeing the potential in these youth to change their behavior, the courts in Colorado committed these youth to Ridge View Academy. A Colorado Department of Youth Corrections program operated by Rite of Passage, Ridge View Academy is a highly structured and closely supervised residency program located in Watkins, Colorado.
When these young men became students at Ridge View they were challenged to do many things they would have not thought possible before. One of these things is FIRST robotics. Ridge View began its association with FIRST robotics in 2004 when Roger Allott, a prosecutor who believed in justice and helping troubled youth, saw in FIRST a program that could help his cause. He saw that FIRST programs build not only science and technology skills and interest but also foster well rounded life capabilities including self-confidence, communication and leadership. Since its rookie year in 2005, members of team 1583 have lived up to Roger’s expectations and then some. Engineering mentor Chuck Brant won the regional Woodie Flowers award in 2006. The team was a member of the Colorado regional winning alliance in 2007. In 2010 the team won the regional Chairman’s award and the Judges award at the FIRST Championship in Atlanta. |

Re: Who is team ####?
TEAM 694!
![]() We're Stuypulse. We're a NYC team, and a frequent contender at both the NYC and Hartford regionals (We've been to Champs 8 times in 11 years). We're one of the largest clubs at our school and one of the largest teams in New York City, with a diverse student body and the blessing of many skilled mentors, including one regional Woodie Flowers Award winner. We spread the love with a lot of mentoring and demoing, and showing off a little Stuypulse magic every once in a while. ![]() Hit this link for more info.

Re: Who is team ####?
2212!!!
We're The Spikes, from Lod, Israel. We compete in the Israeli regional since 2007, and won many prizes, at least one every year (in 2011 we recieved two-the Website Award and the Gracious Professionalism Award), and we allways reach the quarter finals (except 2010). We're a small team, in the ballpark of 20 students. We have brilliant students, and many times come up with great designs, but we usually have a hard time building them, because of lack of materials and money. We have great new sponsors this year, so we'll se you in St. Louis! Here's a link to our website:http://www.atid2212.com/ |

Quote:
But please do not, I repeat, DO NOT say Stooie-pulse. That is dead wrong and everyone says it that way. Our name comes from the name of Peter Stuyvesant, the Dutch leader of New Amsterdam before it was New York, so it is pronounced in Dutch and not English. Thank you.

Re: Who is team ####?
The Xerox/Wilson Magnet X-Cats are a FIRST Legacy team and the only two time winner of the Chairman's award which makes them the only team who officially qualifies for the world championship twice beforehand. As we are fond of saying we do not just build robots we build people.

Re: Who is team ####?
We are Team 399, Eagle Robotics from Lancaster, California. Based out of Lancaster High School(drawing students from Eastside and Quartz Hill high schools this year, and in previous years adopting the members of now defunct FRC1110 of Highland HS).
Over the years, we've spawned three FRC teams(585, 1110, 2339), one FTC team(FVC 399, now FTC72), and countless FLL teams. As part of our outreach, we mentor, assist, and connect with these teams and more. We are the first FIRST team in the Antelope Valley, going into our 13th year of competition. Typically, we are attendants of either the San Diego or Los Angeles regionals, and some regional out of state. This will be our second year of attending three regionals: San Diego, Utah, and Colorado. For all of our years of being a team, we've qualified for the Championship event. Our major achievements include, but aren't limited to: -Regional Chairman's award @ LA 2007 -Regional Chairman's award @ LA 2008 -Regional Champions @ Colorado 2009 -Division Finalists @ Curie 2009 -IRI Champions 2010 -Regional Champions @ Utah 2011 Our team is willing to assist any team in need at any competitions we attend. Our pit crew would love to help teams in any way possible. Just look for us in our orange jerseys ![]() |

Re: Who is team ####?
Team 2993, here.
Our rookie year was 2009. We're the only FRC team in Cache Valley and span multiple schools with our base of operations at InTech Collegiate High. A few letters from us after our rookie year in Las Vegas got support from the state legislature for the Utah Regional, and it was held the next year. We've gotten a little better every year, from not making eliminations, to quarterfinals, to finals, and hope to make it to Championships this year. Good luck everyone. |

Re: Who is team ####?
Hello there, this is Sumathi from team 2410 CAPS Metal Mustang Robotics, commonly recognized on web casts as "that one team with silver cowboy hats". For those of you familiar with us you may be wondering why our name is slightly changed this year. Last season our team became a district team which meets at the Center of Advanced Professional Studies (CAPS). In the past we have won the rookie all star award, and awards at the Oklahoma and Greater Kansas City Regionals.
This year we attended the Greater Kansas City regional and will be attending the Oklahoma Regional. As of now I believe we have around 45 students and about 10 mentors that works with us. |
