Welcome to TRCompetition
LEARN THE SKILLS. DESIGN. BUILD. CODE. COMPETE
The TRC Competition teams at TRC provide our students with engaging and dynamic opportunities to apply what they learn in the classroom within a social setting, fostering lasting friendships. Selection for teams occurs through an exclusive invitation process, prioritizing students who have been involved in our Homeschool, TRClasses, TRCamps, and previous teams during the program period. Any additional openings will be filled afterward.
Team meetings take place on designated days throughout the week for specific training and build sessions, with the possibility of extra meetings on weekends as necessary for tournaments, team prep and practice.
Our Vision: engineer mighty things

FIRST Alumni ScholarshipS
FIRST Alumni and Scholarships
High school-level FIRST participants become FIRST Alumni and gain access to exclusive education funding as part of the FIRST Scholarship Program.
Who are FIRST Alumni?
FIRST Alumni are graduates of high school-level FIRST programs (i.e. FIRST Tech Challenge and/or FIRST Robotics Competition).
FIRST participants automatically become FIRST Alumni after graduating high school.
FIRST Alumni are 2.6 times more likely to enroll in an engineering course freshman year of college.
Over 75% of FIRST Alumni are in a STEM field as a student or professional
Nearly half of the FIRST Alumni are still involved in FIRST as coaches, mentors, volunteers, and donors.
More information about FIRST Alumni, along with internship and networking opportunities, can be found at www.firstinspires.org/alumni.
Who is eligible for a FIRST Scholarship?
High school students who have participated or are participating in high-school-level FIRST Robotics Competition and/or FIRST Tech Challenge teams can apply for FIRST Scholarships.
Most FIRST Scholarship Providers request applications during a student's senior year, but there are a few scholarships available to juniors or college students.
Each scholarship may also have other eligibility requirements as set by the provider. Eligibility requirements are available at www.firstinspires.org/scholarships.
