Team 71229 is a brand new FIRST Lego Robotics team based in central New Hampshire. Our team formed out of a group of central NH homeschoolers who wanted to participate in FIRST but found no existing teams in our area to join. So we created one!
Why "Team 71229"?
Every FIRST team is assigned a team number, which they retain year-to-year. Many FIRST teams choose a different name every year with each new group of kids. So while our team name may change, we will always be Team 71229.
