About Us
A small team with big heart, FIRST Robotics Team 1405 has used creativity and ingenuity to consistently compete with great success against teams with much larger rosters (and budgets!). We have received multiple awards over the years, including the Creativity Award at this year's FRC Finger Lakes Regional.
This year, we have the honor of competing at the FIRST World Championship in St. Louis, Missouri, after winning the 2016 Finger Lakes Regional at Rochester Institute of Technology.
