The Kinetic Knights, Team 781, is a FIRST® Robotics Competition (FRC) team based in Kincardine, Ontario and was created in 2002. We have participated in the For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology (FIRST®) Robotics Competition for the past eleven years. Each January, FRC teams from around the world are given a challenge and have only six weeks to design, build, and program a robot. There are approximately 40 students from Kincardine District Secondary School participating in the program, with almost 20 mentors and teachers helping out the team. This year with our robot we plan to attend the Greater Toronto East Regional, Waterloo Regional and the Queen City Regional.

2012 Kick Off

The Kinetic Knights spent their day at the Bruce Power Visitor Centre to watch the 2012 Kick-Off Video! Along with the Kinetic Knights, teams from Stayner, a rookie team from Angus, and one of our local FLL teams all joined together to watch and discuss ideas for the 2012 Challenge, Rebound Rumble.
We would like to thank all the students and mentors for coming, Kush and Richard for organizing this event, and to Bruce Power for the use of their visitor centre and the continued support for the past eleven years.
