We are the Skywalkers

Creating the Next Generation of STEM Leaders

Who are the Skywalkers?

Team Skywalkers is a student-led organization whose mission is to create the next generation of STEM leaders through the intersection of engineering principles, leadership, and community service. We teach STEM to underserved Bay Area communities and annually participate in the FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC), the most prestigious robotics competition for high schoolers worldwide.

FRC Skywalkers won second place at the Silicon Valley Regional, one of the most difficult regionals. Our team was also one of the few finalists at the Sacramento Regional.

The FIRST Robotics Competition

Under strict rules, limited resources, and an intense six-week time limit, FRC teams are challenged to raise funds, design a team brand, hone teamwork skills, and build and program industrial-sized robots (weighing over 120 pounds!) to play in a complex field game against like-minded competitors. At the same time, FRC teams are encouraged to give back to their communities with the knowledge and resources they've gained.
