Our Team

We are Team 569A! Excited for the new season Tower Takeover, we are determined to build a fully functioning robot that will win awards and tournaments as we compete throughout the year.  In our team, we are all very connected and are overjoyed to build new friendships with the new team members this year. We are all sophomore or freshman members who are involved in many aspects of our robot. Our team has worked diligently all year to ensure that our robot is functioning to its best ability, as well as managing our many different departments. Our team has set many goals for this year, and we plan to push ourselves to achieve the very best.
