The FTC Benelux Scrimmage was a fantastic opportunity for teams to gain valuable experience and further refine their skills in a competitive yet supportive environment. Held alongside the FTC Benelux Championship, the scrimmage featured 20 additional teams who participated in a series of exciting matches, all with an eye on improving their strategies ahead of future events.
Throughout the day, teams demonstrated impressive teamwork, creativity, and innovation as they fine-tuned their robots. The atmosphere was full of energy, with teams learning from each match and each other.
Team 20092 RTF Robotic Tech Frox dominated the matches, holding the top spot in the rankings from start to finish and ultimately claiming victory as the FTC Benelux Scrimmage Winner. However, since they are a German team and could not qualify through this event, the European Premier Event spot was awarded to the second-place team, team 26122 One MegaBot. This rookie team has now earned the opportunity to compete on an international stage at the European Premier Event in Eindhoven, taking place from July 1-5, 2025. A fantastic achievement and an exciting next step in their FIRST® journey!
The scrimmage was an excellent reminder of the power of learning and growth in the FIRST community, where every team, regardless of rank, takes home valuable lessons to carry forward. We can’t wait to see these talented teams continue to push the boundaries of innovation and teamwork!
