What is FIRST?
FIRST in an organization founded by revolutionary inventor Dean Kamen to excite young people about careers in science and technology fields. FIRST has matured a lot since the first FRC season 20 years ago. Growing from 28 high school teams in 1992 to over 15,000 today (comprised of high school level FRC and FTC as well as junior high aged FLL).

The Rebound RumbleTM robotics game is played between two Alliances of three teams each. Each Alliance competes by trying to score as many of the basketballs in the hoops as possible during the 2-minute and 15-second match. Balls scored in higher hoops score Alliances more points. Alliances are awarded bonus points if they are balanced on bridges at the end of the match. In matches where opponent Alliances work together to balance on the white bridge, all participating teams earn additional valuable seeding points. http://youtu.be/nOXsdhZZSdM
