Team 2537, Space RAIDers, is a FIRST FRC Robotics Team at Atholton High School in Columbia, Maryland.
Team 2537 is gearing up for the Charged Up season of FIRST FRC (presented by Haas). Fall training is underway and we have a great group of students actively involved. The team enjoyed getting back to the Battle of Baltimore and earning enough points to be an Alliance Captain for the playoffs. We are planning a traditional kickoff event at Atholton High School on Jan. 7th, so if you are in the area please plan to stop by and cheer on the team.
Interested in the Team even if you are not STEM focused?
FIRST and Team 2537 is more than just building robots. Let us know what you are interested in working on whether it is related to business, community service, film, engineering, social media, computer science!

Team 2537 Rapid React Robot
After a team vote, our Rapid React robot was named the PandaBot. The name was inspired by the elements of this year’s game – intake of balls (cargo), shooting balls into the hub, and a final climb. PandaBot – it eats shoots and climbs!
The season was impacted by COVID-19 restrictions, but the team was able to overcome these and construct a very capable robot.
