FIRST in NH
The home of FIRST headquarters, New Hampshire hosts more than 250 teams across all programs. FIRST is highly supported at the state level: it's a Learn Everywhere program and there is funding to ensure any student that wants to participate can do so. This spirit culminates in the Governor's Cup, a unique annual off-season competition for New Hampshire FRC teams.
Join in the fun! NE FIRST events are open to the public.
A typical competition starts with teams arriving, getting set up, and practicing before they participate in matches that determine their qualification ranking. Events will include an opening ceremony each morning, a lunch break (concessions available!) and a concluding awards ceremony! When you arrive, look for the info desk to find the day's schedule or a map of where teams from near you are set up. Questions? Email the contacts on this page!
Since 1992, Manchester Central High School’s FIRST Robotics Team has been inspiring students into STEM-centered learning through team-based activity. CHAOS students use STEAM skills to build robots, host events, and volunteer for the community.
