About The Hi Fives FTC

Our FIRST Tech Challenge teams (up to 15 members, ages 12-18 in grades 6-12) design and build a robot using a reusable kit of parts and compete within a common set of game rules to play an exciting field game and complete a specific season challenge. The robot game is released in September of every year and is always a blast!

Student team members and adult mentors are encouraged to bring any skills they already have, like programming, electronics, metalworking, graphic design, web creation, public speaking, videography, and many more. FIRST Tech Challenge welcomes every student, with or without special skills.

The Hi Fives FTC Team build and competition season runs from August through February. If the team makes it to the World Championship that will extend our season into April. We meet year-round to better ourselves and prepare our team for the next season.

Our Team

The Hi Fives FTC team started in the 2024-2025 season with a full team of 15 kids. For the 2026-2026 season, we started a second team, and in 2026-2027, we added a third. We're excited to be going into the BIOBUZZ season with three teams!
