FRC赛事是一个面向初、高中生的国际机器人比赛。在这个比赛中，我们在成人的指导下设计、搭建机器人，然后参加这一项智力挑战赛。
此竞赛将科学技术与体育竞标赛的乐趣、活力和兴奋融为一体。各赛队在比赛时都展示出高尚的专业与合作精神。FRC比赛可以让我们变得更加有创意，激发我们心中的想法，让我们去迎接挑战。

The varsity Sport for the MindTM, FRC combines the excitement of sport with the rigors of science and technology. Under strict rules, limited resources, and time limits, teams of 25 students or more are challenged to raise funds, design a team "brand," hone teamwork skills, and build and program robots to perform prescribed tasks against a field of competitors. It’s as close to "real-world engineering" as a student can get. Volunteer professional mentors lend their time and talents to guide each team.
