FIRST® Robotics Hudson Valley Regional

Fifty high school teams from New York, surrounding states and the UK – featuring fourteen teams from the lower Hudson Valley - will compete in the FIRST® Robotics Competition Hudson Valley Regional event. This high-tech sporting event will produce excitement and energy for participants and spectators alike, as teams compete for honors and recognition that reward design excellence, sportsmanship, teamwork, and more. The Hudson Valley Regional is presented thanks to generous sponsorships from Bezos Family Foundation, Pfizer, Con Edison, Verizon, Orange & Rockland, Optimum, and the grassroots support of the lower Hudson Valley community. REEFSCAPE presented by Haas is part of the 2024-2025 FIRST® DIVE presented by Qualcomm season. In REEFSCAPE, teams will use their engineering skills to strengthen one of the ocean’s most diverse habitats and make waves to build a better world. Two competing Alliances will score coral, harvest algae, and attach to the barge before time runs out, and Alliances earn additional rewards for meeting specific scoring thresholds and for cooperating with their opponents. FIRST® (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) is a not-for-profit organization, founded by inventor Dean Kamen, dedicated to preparing young people for the future. The FIRST Robotics Competition is a program that challenges high school students – working with professional mentors – to design and build a robot to compete in matches that measure the effectiveness of each robot, the power of collaboration, and the determination of students. Admission is free. More information: https://www.nysfirst.org/hudson-valley
