FIRST Robotics Competition BIOCORE Logo

Under strict rules and limited time and resources, teams of high school students are challenged to build industrial-size robots to play a difficult field game in alliance with other teams, while also fundraising to meet their goals, designing a team “brand,” and advancing respect and appreciation for STEM within the local community.

The FIRST Robotics Competition program in Oregon is part of the Pacific Northwest District under the leadership of FIRST Washington. The theme of the 2027 FIRST Robotics Competition is BIOCORE as part of the overall FIRST season theme of FIRST CANOPY.
