The Basics
The 2025 FRC game that our team will be participating in is called REEFSCAPE, and it incorporates different elements of STEAM that are designed to challenge all FRC teams. There are multiple objectives for this game. The main basis of the game is to collect pipes known as CORAL and return them to one of the four levels of the REEF. Another way to score is to collect the balls called ALGAE from the reef and throw them into the BARGE in the center of the arena spanning the arena's width. A robot can throw the ALGAE, or it can be put through a PROCESSOR and the players can throw the ALGAE. At the end of a match, robots can hang on CAGES that are positioned at different heights. Lower cages, called DEEP CAGES, score more points than higher cages, called SHALLOW CAGES.
At competition, our team demonstrates one of FIRST's two CORE values, "Coopertition", by working with other teams on either the Red Alliance or the Blue Alliance. Meaning if we formulate a good strategy and work together with other teams, we could have the opportunity to win one of the two regional competition events we are in. Our goal within the next few years is to qualify for the FIRST Championship Competition, known as Worlds.
