The 2018 FIRST Robotics Competition Kickoff event was held today at McKinley HS at 5:30am. This event launches the moment when 3,000+ competing teams worldwide get to see the reveal video of the 2018 FIRST Robotics game. 

The Kickoff event marks the beginning of the design and build season, which lasts a total of 6 weeks. Teams have the opportunity to meet at "local" Kickoffs to compare notes, get ideas, make friends, find mentoring teams, learn the game, pick up the Kickoff Kit from the Kit of Parts, and get geared up for the exciting competition season. 

This year’s game is called “Power Up.” We look forward to cheering on Lancer Robotics Team 2437 this season!
