FRC Team 3359 Royal Robotics

FRC Team 3359 Royal Robotics Royal Robotics is a group of high school students in Portsmouth exploring STEM careers and using their robot to compete in local and national competitions.

Royal Robotics was originally started under the name Portsmouth Commodores at I.C. Norcom High School. A few years later, the program was moved to Churchland High School where the name was changed to Royal Robotics. We incorporate all the other high schools in Portsmouth to be a part of the team. We have participated in FIRST competitions since 2009 and are steadily growing with 30 members and cou

nting. Our mentors, past and present, include Danielle Morgan, a physics teacher at Churchland High, John Wyld, a systems engineer, and several post graduate high school students.

Oh. My. Goodness.
This past weekend we held our home meet at our very own Churchland High School, and it was such a great experience for our team. It was our new robot’s debut for our first competition of the 2024 CRESCENDO season. We are so grateful to have been able to play alongside the best alliance partners and for the playoffs.

We are so very proud of our team, for not only pushing through some tough spots with our robot and making first place with our alliance, but also for trying out a new driver and some new drive team members!

We are so excited to continue our journey with this year’s robot and take her to succeed in further competitions. Go 3359!!πŸ’œπŸ’›πŸ‘‘

We had a blast yesterday at our last off-season competition of the year. Rumble In The Roads gave us a chance for one of our new drivers to practice and experience driving in competition, and our new members got to experience a real competition with their own eyes. We were picked by the 2nd alliance by and and we are so lucky to have had such great alliance partners. Even though we had gotten eliminated in the 3rd round of playoffs, we are so grateful for this wonderful experience!! We are more than ready to begin a new season with the best team and the best mentors. Go We had a blast yesterday at our last off-season competition of the year.
