FIRST tech Challenge

Hello, Teams!

This website has all the information you would need about the NYC FIRST Tech Challenge. If you haven't yet registered a team or need more information about starting a team, please visit our main website here.

This year's game is called Freight Frenzy, where robots manipulate game pieces and explore the future of transportation.

Volunteer with Us

FTC Challenge competitions are largely run with the support of local volunteers. Volunteers serve as judges, referees, and every role in between. Our volunteers come from local companies, the FIRST community, and other organizations that support STEM education. To learn more about partnering with NYC FIRST or serving as a volunteer, please follow the instructions on our Volunteer Page and we will reach out to you shortly!
