Each year, the robotics parents meticulously set up 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 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 provides for the FRC Robotics community in Georgia. This is a regional resource as we open the field to teams around the state to schedule practice sessions. The DE Field is managed by parents so that students can focus on the many other areas of team needs.
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!
