Competitive robotics combines the excitement of sport with the rigor of science and technology. The Decatur Robotics teams do much more than build robots and have something for everyone. Beyond building, designing, and programming robots, roles include community outreach/service, fundraising, social media and branding, and more. Students with varied backgrounds and experience are organized into subteams to focus on these different specialties. With Decatur Robotics, every player can go pro, and we invite you to join us in this exciting sport. Students have called it “the hardest fun you’ll ever have.” Students in 9th-12th grades are eligible, and no prior experience is necessary. We need curious minds, problem-solvers, team players, and above all, individuals who share our love for innovation and learning.
