East Cobb Robotics FRC Team 4910 is excited to announce that for the 4th year in a row, its students have earned a spot at the FIRST Robotics World Championship in Houston, Texas. East Cobb Robotics (ECR) is a community-based organization providing STEM education to high-school aged students through its participation in the FIRST Robotics Competition. Each year, over 3600 teams from around the world are provided a ‘game,’ challenging them to design, build, and program a robot in order to compete. ey have just six weeks to accomplish this goal, followed by tournaments where teams strive to outperform the robots of other teams. At the end of these tournaments, the top 400 teams world-wide earn an invitation to the Championship event.
This year, at the Peachtree District/Georgia State Championship, East Cobb Robotics and their alliance won the event, and ECR also placed rst among the top 45 teams in the state. Joining ECR on the winning alliance were teams 2974 Walton Robotics and team 2415 Westminster WiredCats. We are very proud of all their accomplishments and can’t wait to see what the future has in store for them.
