Team Mission
Team Mission
Team 1699’s mission is to promote student interest in STEM through design challenges and hands-on work that build technical knowledge and interpersonal skills. Check out this year's challenge below!
Team 1699 is part of FIRST ® Robotics Competition and competes in The Ultimate Sport for the MindTM
FRC combines the excitement of sport with the rigors of science and technology. Under strict rules and limited time and resources, teams of high school students are challenged to build industrial-size robots to play a difficult field game in alliance with other teams, while also fundraising to meet their goals, designing a team “brand,” and advancing respect and appreciation for STEM within the local community.
During an FRC season, Bacon Academy’s Team 1699 students:
Build a robot they design themselves in just 8 weeks
Work alongside skilled mentors
Learn to use professional hardware and software
Develop skills such as engineering design, project management, programming, teamwork, public speaking, and strategic thinking
Compete in a difficult field game
Have fun!

The 2024 Season
ends with a
State Champs win!
Amidst fierce competition, the Bacon Academy High School Robotics Team emerged victorious at the CIAC State Championship of the FIRST Robotics Competition on May 19th. The event saw the best 24 teams from across the state vying for top honors in a test of engineering prowess and strategic thinking. Finishing the qualification matches as 1st Alliance captain, the Robocats invited Team 195 and Team 1991 to join together in their battle for the title. Together the teams won match after match in the upper bracket and defeated the remaining lower bracket alliance in three heart-stopping Finals matches. The Robocats previously described as “criminally underrated” also won the Autonomous Award as well as the Excellence in Engineering award at earlier District events.

Janky Sue spent much of the build season in design and redesign. The team persisted and when she finally came together, she became the 3rd seed Alliance Captain at our first competition at Western New England. The team also brought home the Autonomous Award! We finished strong at Hartford and headed to the New England District Championships at the Big E. Janky Sue was selected to be part of the First Alliance! Our Alliance with Team 1757 and Team 176 won both the Wilson Division and the final New England District Championships! So many close calls, exciting plays, and great alliance partners to celebrate with!!
