It’s Rodeo Time!!!
Welcome to Howdy Bots Rodeo, our flagship student-led off-season robotics competition! From creating the game rules and manual to organizing the event, Howdy Bots brings this unique engineering challenge to life.
After 8 weeks of designing, building, and testing custom robots, 7 teams are ready to compete! Joining Howdy Bots are Team 2881 Lady Cans from Austin, Team 6357 The Spring Konstant from Dripping Springs, and Team 9506 Conspiracy Robotics from Manor.
Spectators welcome! Join us for the final showdown on Saturday, October 24, from 12:30–6:00 PM! Can’t attend in person? Watch the action on our YouTube livestream!
We are a co-ed community robotics team comprised of 13 to 18-year-olds from Austin, TX that participates in FRC (First Robotics Competition).
Ten years ago, a group of homeschool kids created a robotics team in their garage because they wanted to compete, but there wasn’t a team that they could join. Since then our team size quintupled, and we have moved to the Austin STEM Center. We have a passion for STEM education, and we love sharing it with everyone we can in our community.
Our mentors are professional engineers, business leaders, and Howdy Bot alumni. Our team wouldn’t be here without our fanastic families support!
