Destination Engineering (DE)

Destination Engineering (DE) is the name of our practice field.  Each year, the robotics parents meticulously setup a practice field meeting the specifications of the new year’s FIRST FRC game.  You can imagine how much more difficult it would be for teams to perform well in competition with never having the opportunity to practice on a game field.  DE assists a network of competitive robotics teams in becoming capable of reaching the Einstein Field at World Championships. The Einstein Field is the name of the field where the final matches are played at Worlds. 

DE is the most visible and impactful program Walton Robotics provided for the FRC Robotics community in GA. This is a regional resource as we open the field to teams around the state to schedule practice sessions. It is run for the most part by parents.

Walton Robotics started the concept of sharing the practice field with teams in the area and this concept has been replicated by teams in New York, Colorado, and North Carolina. Walton Robotics is a model for teams nationwide!

For more information on Destination Engineering, visit the FRC Team Practice Field Signup Info page.
