The Buzz Robotics team is asking for your help supporting our team’s goal to inspire students to pursue careers in science and technology! Buzz Robotics is based out of Enfield, CT, consisting of students from Enfield High School. 

Buzz is one of over 3,800 teams throughout the world that compete in the annual FIRST Robotics Competition program. The team, formed in 1996 with industry partner Collins Aerospace (formerly UTC Aerospace Systems), has competed and won numerous awards at the regional and national competitions, most notably the FIRST Chairman's Award in 2002. This award earned our team a place in the Hall of Fame, which recognizes a very small number of teams for their exceptional contributions to spreading STEM in their communities. 

FIRST is an international non-profit organization that aspires to transform culture, making science, math, engineering, and technology as cool for kids as sports are today. FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) challenges teams of high school students and mentors to design, assemble, and iterate a robot that competes in a new challenge that is presented each year in January.
