About our Club

What is Pioneer Robotics? 

Pioneer Robotics is an extracurricular activity that offers students the opportunity to extend and apply their learning in engineering, computer science, robotics, and community outreach. The club fields a team to compete with other teams from schools throughout Arizona and the Southwest region in the annual international FIRST Tech Challenge (FTC). Teams design, build and program a robot that operates autonomously and by remote control for game play with and against alliance partners.   

Opportunities to Learn

Pioneer Robotics offers an environment for interested students to develop and build their skills in various STEM and other career-oriented areas. These include, but are not limited to:

The 2026-2027 FTC BIOBUZZ Field

Although the BIOBUZZ field has not been released yet, Pioneer is preparing for the season by reviewing past seasons, training new members, and improving the code base.
