Bots Of War has participated in FIRST Robotics Competition since 2013 as FRC Team 4290.

 

FIRST was founded in 1989, by Dean Kamen, to inspire  young people’s interest and participation in science and technology.

“Our mission is to inspire young people to be science and technology leaders, by engaging them in exciting mentor-based programs that build science, engineering and technology skills, that inspire innovation, and that foster well-rounded life capabilities including self-confidence, communication, and leadership.
​
[Our] vision is to transform our culture by creating a world where science and technology are celebrated and where young people dream of becoming science and technology leaders.
” -Dean Kamen, Founder​.
