The NC Avengers are a team of nine close friends in middle school who share a passion for STEM, creativity, and teamwork. We began our journey through the FIRST® LEGO® League (FLL), where we explored robotics and innovation to solve real-world problems. Our dedication led us to the 2022 North Carolina FLL State Championship, a major milestone in our growth. Now, we have advanced to the FIRST® Tech Challenge (FTC), aiming to develop advanced engineering and programming skills. With determination and a shared vision, we strive to make a meaningful impact in STEM and beyond.

Our Mission:

The NC Avengers participate in the FIRST Tech Challenge not just for our love of robotics and teamwork, but for the valuable skills and experiences it provides. FTC helps us enhance our coding, communication, and life skills, preparing us for future careers in STEM. It also encourages innovation, discovery, allows us to impact a broader community, and apply our learning to real-world situations. Ultimately, FTC is more than just building robots—it's about personal growth, making a difference, and preparing for the future.

We have connected with middle and elementary school students, fostering a sense of motivation and collaboration among us. Together, we explore how the dynamic world of science and technology can be harnessed to tackle challenges, all while enjoying the process and gaining a deeper understanding of the foundations of problem-solving.
