1st Competition
Beneath the ocean’s surface lies our planet’s most complex ecosystems, full of life and potential for exploration and learning, where each inhabitant has a role to play in building a thriving environment. During the 2024-2025 FIRST season, FIRST® DIVE℠ presented by Qualcomm, teams will use their STEM and collaboration skills to explore life beneath the surface of the ocean. Along the way, we’ll uncover the potential in each of us to strengthen our community and innovate for a better world with healthy oceans.
In REEFSCAPE presented by Haas, FIRST® Robotics Competition teams will use their engineering skills to strengthen one of the ocean’s most diverse habitats. Watch the game animation to see how you can make waves.
