We are UC-Botics, a FIRST Robotics team from Upsala, MN. We compete every year in the FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC), where we play with and against other teams to accomplish a task. The game usually consists of two alliances, each made up of multiple different teams. The game changes every season, introducing differing concepts of scoring and playing. For instance, the game for the 2013-2014 season was Arial Assist; the main task was to put a 2 foot diameter ball through a goal that was 7 ½ feet above the playing field. FIRST highly values team-work, not just within each team, but between teams. For instance, if one team’s wheel broke, another team may lend a new one. Because you never know who you will be put on an alliance with. We, UC-Botics, also value teamwork. Because if one tooth on a cog is broken, the whole cog is broken.
