Beach Cities Robotics (BCR), also known as Team 294, is a FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) team that designs, builds, and programs a competitive robot in six weeks. Each year, we compete in regional competitions with the goal of qualifying for the FIRST World Championship. Our students work in sub-teams to build a robot with the help of experienced mentors who work in the industry at companies such as Northrop Grumman and SpaceX. When we are not in competition season (which runs January-April), we work on projects to learn skills in engineering, science, technology, and business. This includes programming, machining, Computer Aided Design (CAD), prototyping, marketing, and outreach. By completing this business plan, we intend to reflect on our growth, identify opportunities for improvement, and implement solutions to improve Team 294 and promote the FIRST community. Our lab is located on the campus of Redondo Union High School in Redondo Beach, California. Student membership is open to all high school students in good standing at Redondo Union and Mira Costa High Schools. We also allow students from other schools if they do not have access to a FIRST Robotics Competition team otherwise (up to mentor discretion). Beach Cities Robotics is a student-led team; students provide the energy and ideas to drive the team while working with mentor guidance and direction to develop new skills and accomplish their goals.
