Competitions

Each January, FIRST® sets out the engineering challenge for the year, and we come together to design, build and program our robot for the competition season that starts in March.  January to April is an intense period for Team 1310, but this challenge provides team members with new friendships, while fostering a sense of belonging and pride in our collective accomplishments.

The 2026 challenge is REBUILT presented by Haas Game Animation.  To find out more, watch the video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_fybREErgyM) or visit the FIRST® website (https://www.firstinspires.org/programs/frc/game-and-season)
