We Build More Than Robots, We Build Futures

We have two captains who provide leadership for our teams. The Captain represents us at competitions and outreach events, leads alliance selection on the field, and collaborates with our strategy team on competitive decisions. The Captain in Training (CIT) shadows the Captain throughout the season to ensure a smooth leadership transition at the end of the year.

Our Student Leadership Team (SLT) meets weekly with the coaches to propose, review and approve various decisions affecting the team as a whole. The SLT is comprised of the team captain, the 'captain in training', and one student from each subteam.

This subteam manages our team brand and messaging, promoting the mission of Skyview Robotics and FIRST through community outreach, sponsor relations, and social and traditional media. It's an excellent fit for students interested in writing, graphic design, photo/video production, marketing, and business.

This subteam designs and builds the electronic circuits and controls of the robot, including onboard computers, sensors, motor drivers, and power management systems. Students interested in digital electronics, circuit design, and system integration thrive here.

This subteam designs and builds the chassis and drive train that makes our robot move. Students use CAD software to create designs, then bring them to life using machine shop tools. If you love mechanical design and fabrication, this is your team.

This subteam designs and builds the mechanisms that manipulate game pieces—the parts of the robot that shoot, grab, lift, and score. Students use CAD and machine shop tools to turn creative solutions into working mechanisms.

This subteam creates the code that makes the robot perform all required functions. Students learn programming languages and systems analysis to develop the best code for both autonomous and driver-operated tasks.

This subteam creates and manages our competitive advantage throughout the season. They help develop robot design and gameplay strategy, and manage the competition scouting process. This subteam is perfect for students interested in data collection, analytics, and strategic thinking.

Our most unique subteam and a true competitive advantage! The Wingnuts lead our safety culture, build and mobilize our competition pit, and construct field elements for robot practice. Students design using CAD and build using machine shop tools—all while keeping safety at the forefront.
