Duel on the Delaware
Duel on the Delaware is an unofficial off-season competition that uses the 2026 FRC theme. It is hosted by 316 LunaTecs, and is a great opportunity for anyone interested in robotics to experience the thrill of FRC without the commitment of a full season. It's a great way to get a taste of what FRC is like, and to see if it's something you would be interested in pursuing further!
Whether you're a incoming freshman or soon-to-be senior, experience with robotics and FRC will provide for a great opportunity to learn about engineering, programming, teamwork, and most importantly, the FRC community. At Duel on the Delaware, you'll get to not only witness, but also actively participate in helping our robot make it onto the field!
While this competition is aimed towards high school students who will be attending grade 9-12 in the 2026-27 school year, younger students are also invited to come, albeit with parental supervision to meet child safety rules. Parents of students are welcome to join us, but due to space limitations, they may not be able to enter our team's workspace. This event is free and does not require any future commitment to our team; it is meant to be a preview to FIRST Robotics for anyone interested.

weekday at ENABLE JAVASCRIPT, from 7 PM to 9 PM. Attending team meetings will
allow you to meet our team, receive training, and participate in more roles at Duel.
