Meet our Idaho FRC Teams!!!
Team 1566 “Ammo Knights”
It is the mission of the Ammoknights, located in Idaho Falls, Idaho, to provide a fun and uplifting environment for members to learn and improve their scientific and technical skills. While working together to gain a head start for life after high school, we will better ourselves and learn to exemplify gracious professionalism. In doing so we will become a team that is efficient, cooperative and well rounded.
Team 1569 “HayWire”
Haywire Robotics, Team 1569 in Pocatello Idaho, strives to accomplish FIRST®‘s mission in inspiring young people to be science and technology leaders while fostering well-rounded individuals with self-confidence, communication and leadership skills . An important factor with our team is that we allow all students the opportunity to generate ideas, make decisions, and actively involve themselves in team projects. Winning for our team has little to do with awards and medals and more do with the advancement of students into successful people. Haywire Robotics Team 1569 was started for the 2005 season as one of the first two FIRST® Robotics’ teams in Idaho.
Team 3562 “LiveWire”4H LiveWire Robotics is a three time Chairman’s winning community based FRC team affiliated with Idaho State University Robotics. Located in Pocatello, 4H LiveWire team members come from Pocatello’s three high schools as well as two area high schools (Blackfoot and Marsh Valley) and home school. In addition to building our robot each year, the 4H LiveWire team is dedicated to extensive community service and outreach. We strive to inspire the community and spread STEM education through community service and by offering robotics summer camps (in Pocatello and Blackfoot) and free technology classes to senior citizens. We have a broad Literacy Platform with four original robot storybooks as well as our robot shaped mobile Little Free Library-STEM Edition. Please visit our website at LiveWireRobotics.com or Facebook page: Facebook.com/LiveWireRobotics to view our many community activities and global endeavors.
Team 1891 “The Bullbots”
FIRST Team 1891 – “The Bullbots” – is a FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) team based in Boise, Idaho. The Bullbots are the first established team in the Treasure Valley/Boise, ID. We have helped branch out to many other students to create neighboring teams. We started in 2006 with the help of Micron and other sponsors. We have sought to promote FIRST values and invite more students to participate in FIRST. We have attended the local BSU Stem Day to promote our team, FIRST, and interest in STEM. Other community involvements vary from Demonstrations, Large Service Programs and First Lego League Camps. We hope to encourage more STEM interest and community growth through our efforts.
In 2006, the Bullbots competed in their first FRC competition. As rookies, the team’s primary focus was on building our robot. Since then, FIRST Team 1891 has grown into a true “team” and works to promote FIRST robotics, and engineering in general, throughout the community. Along with workshops and demonstrations, the Bullbots proudly host FIRST LEGO® Robotics Camps – a wildly successful program that gets children involved in the world of engineering and has itself spawned several FIRST LEGO® League (FLL) teams throughout the area.
Ultimately, the Bullbots have become a real club: working, sharing and giving back to the community year-round.
Team Tators was founded in 2007 and has received sustaining sponsorship from tremendous sponsors including the Laura Moore Cunningham Foundation, Trinity Trailer, Trailers Plus, The Jeker Foundation, Solidworks, the Micron Foundation and HP.
Team Tators is hosted by Treasure Math and Science and the Boise School district.

This year, Team 2130 Alpha+ proudly celebrates our thirteenth season. We have proven that “from small beginnings come great things,” emerging from relative obscurity into a team committed to transforming culture. We inspire our local youth to be 21st century STEM leaders by overcoming barriers, gaining real-world skills and embracing the FIRST mission.
Our organization is NASKCO Robotics. We are comprised of students from all three high schools in the Nampa School District. The robotics program serves multiple robotics teams. NASKCO is in its third year as a VEX Robotics team. NASKCO has and will continue to look to sponsor and support other robotics teams in the district such as FIRST Tech Challenge (FTC) and FIRST Lego League (FLL), both are part of the FIRST Robotics program.
