On Friday, both Ferndown robotics teams, Team Python and Team Clawlers, took part in the FTC Robotics Scrimmage at Bournemouth University.

The event provided a fantastic opportunity for students to hear from a range of industry professionals and organisations, including Zestec, Sherpa2, QinetiQ, and the Cornwall Wildlife Trust, gaining valuable insights into careers in technology, engineering, business and beyond. Our teams also had the chance to explore the season's FTC game rules, get hands-on with the competition field, and start developing ideas and strategies for the challenges ahead. A productive and inspiring day for both teams, with plenty of learning, networking and team-building along the way. We can't wait to put what we've learned into practice as the season gets underway!Like to sponsor us? Please head to our team socials for links to our GoFundMe pages.
