Etobicoke Collegiate Robotics Team
It was another amazing weekend for TDSB high school FIRST Robotics Teams. This year's game ''Lunancy'' levelled the playing field and TDSB teams performed better than ever before. In September, a TDSB FRC Mentors group was formed with the goal of improving the success of TDSB Teams in FIRST Robotics Competitions. This weekend's event was evidence of the success of their efforts.

Many of our teams place in the top half of the seeding matches - in the field of 59 teams from Canada and the United States.

The finals saw an alliance including Woburn C.I. face-off against an alliance including Etobicoke C.I. The Etobicoke C.I. alliance narrowly out played the Woburn C.I. alliance in the best of 3 format.

This makes Etobicoke C.I. the first TDSB FIRST Robotics team to ever have won 2 Regional Events in the same year. They have won 2 of the coveted blue banners that Regional Champions display in their pit areas during competitions and later in their schools. The Woburn team won the Finger Lakes Regional earlier and earned finalist medallions this weekend.

Both teams will be travelling to Atlanta, Georgia to compete in the World Festival April 16 -18th where they will take on the top 380 teams out of the 1700 teams worldwide.
