The LigerBots is a FIRST FRC robotics team composed of members from both Newton North and Newton South High Schools in Massachusetts. Students participating in LigerBots design and build a complex robot that plays a game, which is different each year. They have six weeks to design and build their machine. Students program their robot to control it on the playing field. During the competition, teams are paired in alliances, working cooperatively with two other teams to outscore a team of three opponents. In past years, they have designed robots to play frisbee and basketball. You can see last year's robot challenge at tinyurl.com/ligerbots2014.
Special Instructions
Demonstration may not be scheduled during school hours. Certain days are set aside for competitions, etc. so winner must work with Newton Ligerbots to find a mutually agreeable date and time.
