Robo Wizards

We are the Robo Wizards. A community-based team here in the NOVA region. We have been doing FTC for 2 years in which time we have advanced to states and received multiple awards. Our main goal is to learn and inspire those around us.

Our FLL and FTC Awards as of Early 2025

Two of our members and our coach were part of the FLL team, Lego Wizards. We were FLL state champions twice and went to Internationals at Boston, we achieved this in just two years. Our team won many awards such as Robot Performance Awards, Champions Awards, and Innovation Awards. We ended this amazing FLL journey as one of the best teams in the state.

2 years ago we dove into FTC as a rookie team. We learned a lot and pushed ourselves to do well on our robot. The effort showed and we won the control award (and award recognizing a team's understanding and implementation of robot control concepts) among others. During last year's off season, we educated kids in our community by running summer camps, helping teams start FLL/FTC, and attending our elementary school's science fair. This year we built upon our success and won the Aliance Captain Finalist Award, Outreach Award, and 3rd place Innovate Award (Most Prestigeous Award).

Now, in this offseason we are continuing to learn and are looking forward to sharing STEM with our community.

First Programs

FLL introduces STEM and FIRST fundamentals to kids, grades 2-8, through the designing, building, and launching of a robot made of LEGOS. FLL itself is broken into two categories, FLL Explore (Grades 2-4) and FLL Challenge (Grades 4-8). Our team has done FLL Challenge but does not have experience with FLL Explore.

FTC encourages children, grades 7 - 12, to work as a team and code a robot made of metal parts. Teams will be able to participate in both human-operated movement and autonomous movement. Teams will also impact their communities, cities, and even the world through outreach. This is where our team is at right now.

FRC teams use teamwork, time efficiency, and innovative ideas to create an industry-sized all-metal robot. The teams for FRC are huge at 30-60 people so teams are run like companies. Teams for FRC cannot be run from home due to the immense resources needed, so most FRC teams are high school teams.
