FRC Team 10312 · Anna, TexasA student-run FIRST Robotics Competition team out of Anna, Texas. We design in CAD, validate with real numbers, and build robots that do what the spreadsheet says they'll do — while growing engineers and leaders along the way.
Every build cycle runs on a schedule and a set of subteams students actually own, end to end.
Path planning, odometry, vision pipelines, and testing — built and validated like it has to work on the field, because it does.
CAD, prototyping, manufacturing, and the drivebase. Students run the mill, the drill press, and the wiring bench themselves.
Through our partnership with StemCycles, we run community demos and workshops that grow hands-on STEM access well past competition season.
Darius leads team strategy and day-to-day operations, keeps build season on schedule from kickoff to champs, and represents Annalytix at competition alongside the student leads.
Autonomous, vision, and controls.
Machining, assembly, and prototyping.
Envisioning, CAD, and modeling.
Sanjit mentors software, autonomous, and vision. Additional mentors support design, outreach, and competition prep.
Here's what your child gets by joining Annalytix, and why families who join tend to stay.
A fully outfitted workshop with a mill, drill press, and dedicated CAD, wiring, and assembly stations.
Our own regulation practice field on-site for driver practice, autonomous testing, and dialing in mechanisms before competition.
With a roster of about 20 students, every student gets real attention from mentors — up to four days a week and 20 hours of hands-on learning during build season.
CAD design, fabrication, electrical wiring, programming, and project management. Students leave knowing how to build things that actually work.
District events → District Championship → FIRST Championship in Houston.
FRC is recognized by universities nationwide as one of the most rigorous STEM extracurriculars — alumni from programs like ours have gone on to MIT, UT, Georgia Tech, and Caltech.
FRC follows a structured season. Here's what your child's year looks like, from first workshop to championship stage.
New members join, skills get assessed, and we run intro workshops covering CAD, basic fabrication, and team workflows.
Intensive skill development, advanced workshops, and strategy review of past games. We prototype subsystems for January.
FIRST releases the new game. The team breaks down the challenge and locks in a robot design within the first week.
Six weeks of intense engineering — CAD to fabrication to wiring to code to testing. Every student owns a critical piece.
District events. Alliance selection, qualification matches, elimination rounds — the path to District Championship.
District Championship push, and FIRST Championship in Houston if we qualify. Then debrief and celebrate what we built.
Open to high school students ready for a serious competitive program.
Prior robotics experience is preferred but not required. What we require is effort, consistency, and a willingness to learn.
Up to four days a week during build season. This is a real commitment. So is the reward.
Come ready to listen, ask questions, and push yourself. Show up coachable and we'll teach you everything we know.
Share Annalytix if it fits. If you know a family who would thrive here, an introduction is welcome and never expected. Word of mouth is how the right students find us.
Be part of the community however you can: cheering at events, lending a skill, or simply showing up.
Know a business that supports STEM education? An introduction can help keep costs sustainable for all families.
We've coached competitive FRC before. Give us room to coach, and we'll keep you in the loop.
FRC is one of the most resource-intensive programs in STEM education, and Annalytix is built to remove every barrier to competing at the top. The program covers the competition robot, tools, parts, registration for two district events and the District Championship, a dedicated facility, team shirt, robot transport, and professional coaching. The one cost families cover separately is hotels and travel — for district events, and if the team advances to the FIRST Championship in Houston. We walk every family through the full details when we meet to discuss those events.
Experience is preferred but not required. What we require is work ethic. If your child is willing to show up, put in the hours, and learn, we will teach them everything — CAD, fabrication, wiring, programming, strategy. Every student grows if they commit to the process.
Meeting days and hours shift with the season — see the schedule above — but expect 3–4 days a week and roughly 15–20 hours during build season. This is a serious competitive program, not a casual after-school club: the commitment is real, and so are the results.
FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) is the premier high school robotics competition in the world. Teams of students design, build, and program 120-pound industrial robots to compete in a new game each year. FRC is backed by Fortune 500 companies and recognized by top universities as one of the strongest extracurriculars a student can have.
As a new team that just completed our rookie season, we lean on community sponsorship and grants to keep costs sustainable. If you can help us connect with a business that supports STEM, that goes a long way. When we meet one-on-one, we'll talk through what works for your family — we don't want finances to be the reason any student isn't able to be part of the program.
FRC is one of the most recognized extracurriculars in engineering and STEM admissions. Students build a real engineering portfolio and develop leadership and teamwork skills, often leaving with strong letters of recommendation from mentors who've watched them grow. Many FRC alumni attend schools like MIT, Caltech, Georgia Tech, and UT, and credit FRC as a decisive factor.
Step 1: Express interest and meet with our Lead Mentor and Head Coach, Darius Blount, for a one-on-one conversation about your child's goals. Step 2: Lock in your spot for the season. Step 3: We kick off the season in September.
