Flushing Raider Robotics
Welcome to the website of the Flushing High School Raider Robotics Team! We are a FIRST Robotics team based out of Flushing, Michigan. We build in our robotics lab at Flushing High School.
Team History
In 2015, our team got its start with the game Recycle Rush. We were awarded the Rookie Inspiration Award at the Waterford district competition. Just two years later in 2017, Flushing Raider Robotics qualified to compete in the Michigan State Championship, where we took first place on the DTE Energy field and qualified to compete in the World Championship for Steamworks. 2018 was the first year we were actually able to compete in a World Championship event, where we took 9th place on the Daly field. We qualified for both State and World Championships in 2019.
