Our Team

We are FTC Team 7159, an entirely student-run FIRST® Tech Challenge team from Canyon Crest Academy. FIRST® Tech Challenge or FTC is a student robotics competition held by FIRST®. Our team has been running for about 11 years, built 15 robots, and has making an international impact on STEM education for the past 7 years. All of this has been done without ever mandating a fee for participation on the team.
