Previous Games
Each year the First organisation develops a challenge. FRC teams build robots to complete the challenges of the game in a head-to head 3v3 competition.
2024 Crescendo
In CRESCENDO, two competing 3-team alliances score notes (14” orange foam rings) in their speaker and amplifier. The speaker is an angled opening 6’6” off the ground, and the amplifier is a vertical opening 2’2” high. At the end of the match, teams climb a chain to score additional points, and may score some final notes in covered goals 4’8” high (8” above the on-the-floor height limit). Alliances earn additional rewards for meeting specific scoring thresholds and for cooperating with their opponents.

The overall objective of each match is to score more points than the opposing alliance before the match ends.
