We are the primary support organization for FIRST Robotics Competition teams in Minnesota, North Dakota, and South Dakota, helping thousands of students build robots, skills, and community. Our work spans the entire season and beyond, including:

• Organizing the Minnesota State High School Robotics tournament, in partnership with Minnesota State High School League
• Managing equipment and supplies for regional competitions in our area
• Maintaining an official FIRST field for use during the offseason (May-November)
• Facilitating fall off-season events for student and volunteer training
• Administering grant programs that help teams launch, grow, and compete
• Serve as fiscal host for grants
• Supporting students, teams, and mentors through a variety of programs.

We work to ensure that every team in our region — rookie or veteran, rural or urban — has the tools and support they need to thrive.
