FIRST Robotics Competition is the highest level of FIRST and high-school student participants call it “the hardest fun you’ll ever have.” Under strict rules, limited time and resources, teams of students are challenged to raise funds, design a team "brand," hone teamwork skills, and build and program industrial-size robots to play a difficult field game against like-minded competitors.
Volunteer professional mentors lend their time and talents to guide each team.

The leadership of GeorgiaFIRST Robotics and FIRST South Carolina
are proud to announce the Peachtree District expansion
to include both states.
The newly defined Peachtree District territory will now include all FIRST Robotics Competition teams in both Georgia and South Carolina, beginning with the 2023 season. FIRST Robotics Competition teams in both states will have the opportunity to compete at multiple qualifier events throughout the Peachtree territory, leading to the District Championship.
As we continue to work toward our strategic goal of access to quality STEM programing through FIRST, this partnership allows both states to serve our youth at the highest level with a growth model for years to come. Our FIRST teams, volunteers and partners are our greatest asset. We are committed to serving all!
How does this partnership affect your FIRST Robotics Competition team?
Join us for our Peachtree District Town Hall Event on Thursday, August 25th at 7:00pm [eastern]. We will present the season event locations, registration information, district qualifier information and more. See below for meeting link and information.

FIRST Robotics Competition Game Announced: CHARGED UP
2023 FRC CHARGED UP
Under strict rules, with limited time and resources, FIRST® Robotics Competition teams use sophisticated technology to build and program industrial-sized robots to play an action-packed, alliance-based game on a themed field. With professional mentors and sponsors, students learn engineering and problem-solving skills that they can apply to real-world situations today and in the future. Each team creates a team identity, raises funds to meet its goals, and works to promote STEM in their community.
In the CHARGED UP℠ presented by Haas challenge, FIRST Robotics Competition teams will unlock the power of engineering to transform renewable energy and power a better future.
Join us for Kickoff, Saturday, January 7!
Under strict rules, with limited time and resources, FIRST® Robotics Competition teams use sophisticated technology to build and program industrial-sized robots to play a themed field game in an action-packed alliance format. It’s as close to real-world engineering as a student can get. Each team develops a brand, raises funds to meet its goals, and works to promote STEM in the local community.
Project-based, hands-on FIRST® programs introduce students to engineering and coding in an engaging, inclusive, and creative after-school or in-class learning environment where students work collaboratively to solve an annual robotics challenge centered around a yearly theme. Boosted by a million-strong global community of students, mentors, educators, volunteers, sponsors, and alumni in over 100 countries, our PreK-12 programs are designed to inspire innovation and help young people build a better future.
