Over the course of the season, we will design, build, and program our robot to accomplish tasks that will score points when we compete in the Robot Game at FTC competitions. We will compete against other teams at the local, regional, and national level, and have the opportunity to win awards for success in the robot game as for well as for community outreach, robot design, and other real-world accomplishments.
 
Quintin Kerns and Jackson Grant, two members of Team Ctrl-Alt-Del, were a part of the previous year’s FIRST® LEGO League Team #4805, the Determinators. The Determinators won the First Place Champions award at the Georgia State Championship, which was held at the Georgia Tech Student Center on January 26, 2013. Forty-nine teams participated in the state Championship, representing the best of the 506 registered teams in Georgia for the season.

Kerns, Grant, and the Determinators represented Georgia at the FLL World Championship in St. Louis in April 2013. They also hold a provisional patent on the Determinators’ invention and won numerous other awards during 2012-2013 season.
