One of the most important and exciting events of our robotic season is almost upon us!
That's right! Kick-off is only 3 days away and counting. :D
First let me explain a bit more about Kick-off and why it's so important. Our club participates in the FRC, FIRST Robotics Competition, and Kick-off is the day when FIRST, For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology, gives every team the new task for the build season. We watch a video explaining what we have to design a robot to do and then we have six weeks to build the robot. After the six weeks are up, our robot is bagged and tagged until the competition. At the regional competitions, you often a partnered up with two other robots to form an alliance and then your alliance competes with another alliance. All of it is crazy fun and can be difficult, but there is nothing I would exchange it for.
I tried to simplify that as much as I could, but if you still don't understand just ask. Also, here is the link to FIRST's website regarding Kick-off. FIRST Kick-off
Sincerely,

P.S. I look forward to when the countdown is 3 days 5 hours 0 minutes and 1 second because that is our team number.
