Fenton Robotics
Fenton Robotics is made up of 12 teams from grades K-12. We are located in Fenton, MI. We are so excited to show you what's in store for us this season!
About Us
Our Fenton Robotics family is a combination of our FRC, FTC, and FLL teams. In robotics, students can choose from a number of teams such as build, design, programming, marketing, impact, safety, and drive team. These teams work together to finalize and create a robot that will compete in many divisions throughout the season. There is a new game to play with new tasks every year, so students are always solving problems and innovating designs. Our main goal is to build students through teamwork. Through our mentors, coaches, students, and partnerships; we will seek bigger opportunities and more creative ways to spread FIRST throughout our communities.
Mission
Our mission is to have closer interactions between the team parents, mentors, and students to promote camaraderie, familiarity, learning, and unity. It provides for more natural transitions between the teams as the students grow and advance in the robotics program. This cooperation between teams provides for sustainability of upper level team mentors and students.
Fenton Robotics loves to empower students as well as teach them valuable skills to use for future jobs. Kids can learn to program, design, build, promote, and speak publicly to judges about their robots at competitions.
Teams
Fenton Robotics has many teams from grades K-12. We divide them into three groups, FRC, FTC, and FLL.
FRC
First Robotics Challenge
In FRC, or FIRST® Robotics Competition, teams of high school students design, program, and build industrial-sized robots to play an action-packed game, released in January. They compete on a themed field as part of a three-team alliance in the spirit of Coopertition®. In 360-degree learning guided by adult mentors, each FIRST® Robotics Competition team also creates a team identity, raises funds to meet its goals, and advances appreciation for STEM in its community. Fenton Robotics has one FRC team made up of grades 9-12. This is the Titanium Tigers, team 5114.
FTC
First Tech Challenge

In FTC, or FIRST® Tech Challenge, students work together with their mentors to design and build dynamic robots to compete in an exciting game released every September. On and off the field, students develop STEM skills, engage in community outreach, practice engineering innovation, and build confidence to help them succeed. We have three FTC teams, with our two middle school teams being the Tungsten Tigers, team 7643, and the Chromium Tigers, team 19561. We also have an FTC junior team, made of 4th and 5th graders. This team is our Iridium Tigers, team number 26425. This FTC junior team has made it to the States competition two years in a row and competed against middle schoolers.
FLL
First Lego League
FLL, or FIRST® LEGO® League, introduces STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) to children ages 5-16 (varies by region) through fun, exciting hands-on learning.
Participants gain real-world problem-solving experiences through a guided, global robotics program using LEGO® technology, helping today’s students, families, and educators build a better future together.
