Welcome to the Resources pages! Under the four subheadings (Getting Started, General Resources, President’s Circle and Links) you will find a wealth of resources aimed at helping FRC teams and mentors, whether you’re a Rookie or Veteran or even a Super- Fan!

General Resources
Don't know what to bring to competition? Here's a handy guide for your competition needs.
Your one -stop shop for all things FIRST for the seasoned competitor or mentor (and maybe some particularly diehard fans). Resources include information on how to better manage your team, as well as places to seek out technical and strategic help when the season kicks into gear.
President’s Circle
The FIRST President’s Circle is an ongoing initiative by FIRST president Paul Gudonis to draw upon the combined efforts of FRC teams to identify and present thoughtful solutions to difficult situations. In 2007, the challenge was to present best-known resources for rookie teams to grow into successful long-term robotics teams. In 2009-10, participating teams, which include Team 1816, are working on resources for corporate sponsorships.
