Kickoff
The Big Day
The team spent many months relearning and reviewing their skills, while also helping new members get started. However, on kickoff day, things were going to get serious.
On January 6th 2024, Team 2386 watched a livestream and learned about this year’s FIRST Robotics Challenge. The team split into groups and spent some hours poring over the rulebook to understand its intricacies. Groups presented their findings to help bring the rest of the team up to speed. Then, the team brainstormed ideas for this year’s robot design.
