About:

The Spark Youth Robotics Club has an organized team structure that creates a productive and open work atmosphere. All the members of SYRC are dedicated and passionate!

For the overall structure of the team, it is comprised of 3 provides: Software, Mechanical, Business & Outreach. Students are welcomed to participate in any projects from one or a mix of these subteams. Some offseason project examples include computer vision implementation, robot cart design, and team merch design.

For every competition we attend, the team aim towards Gracious Professionalism to better represent who we are as a team, and the community we represent.

Aside from competing at competitions with the intention to achieve better results, we also care hugely about community impact and how we can make a difference to the Ottawa Region. Throughout 2023-present, we have hosted numerous classroom workshops at multiple schools, including Briargeen Public School, W. Erskine Johnston Public School, and Knoxdale Public School, among others.

As a team, we also provide Youth Robotics opportunities called the First Lego League Program, where students get to experience the thrill of building robots from Ages 4-14! More information and registration regarding FLL can be found on the “Join Our Team” page, if you are interested.

Thanks to the hard work of each member, SYRC is a well-coordinated team that is ready for any challenge!!! Our solid team structure allows members to balance different jobs and provides a friendly environment for everyone.
