MARKHAM'S COMMUNITY ROBOTICS TEAM

Is this like Battlebots?
(a frequently asked question)

FIRST Robotics is not about making over-the-top armored and weaponized robots to
battle in arena deathmatchs. What we do can be just as entertaining to watch and
fun to participate in, and even more complex! We participate in FIRST Robotics
Competition (FRC), an international high school robotics competition. The game
involves alliances comprised of 3 teams competing against opposing alliances to
score points, using their own 125-lb. controller-operated robots.

Our Sponsors

Everything that we do would not be possible without the generosity of our
sponsors. Between tournament registration, robot parts, transportation, outreach
expenses, and more, our annual operating budget is between $17000 and $40000.
Our sponsors primarily provide monetary contributions, but in-kind donations
such as materials and tools, in-store discounts, or build/storage space for team
operations are all tremendously impactful. Any and all forms of support are
welcome and appreciated.
