WARP7: FRC Team 865

Who Are We?

We are WARP7, a high school robotics team located in Toronto, Ontario, made up of over 60 dedicated students and mentors with an extensive alumni network. We participate annually in the FIRST Robotics Competition, a worldwide engineering challenge that includes thousands of teams and hundreds of thousands of students. Our robotics program encourages innovation and fosters well-rounded students with life skills including problem-solving, self-confidence, communication, and leadership.

WARP7 was one of the first teams in Canada to join FIRST Robotics and has been working for over a decade to inspire students and create the leaders of tomorrow. We’ve grown from a 7-member group of friends into an extensive group of students, parents, teachers, and alumni all passionate about furthering education in the STEM fields. Our mission is to go above and beyond the high school curriculum by educating students on how to design and build robotics systems using industry standard materials and tools, and to give students the opportunity to work together in teams to problem-solve and innovate.

What Do We Do?

As a robotics team, our team focuses on immersing high school students in the fundamentals of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) through the practical application of designing, manufacturing, assembling, and programming a robot to compete in the annual FIRST Robotics Competition. Additionally, our team strives to educate students in other fields through our business and media teams. By having so many different learning opportunities on WARP7, we are able to attract students interested in many different fields of study and career paths.
