OPEN ALLIANCE

In 2020 a group of teams decided to try an open build season, creating the Open Alliance. The #openalliance members all believe that FRC can have a greater impact on all teams if our ideas are shared throughout the season. With the end of The Bag, there was a concern that FRC teams would become more secretive. The Open Alliance was formed with the hope of stopping that trend before it had a chance to start. We think that teams can share information and still be competitive, and that a rising tide lifts all boats.

​

The #openalliance started small and informal in 2020 to give the concept a chance to grow and evolve organically. All #openalliance teams agreed to have open designs and code, and be willing to answer questions and provide help where able. 

​

After two seasons of success and sharing, it’s time to take #openalliance to the next level. Effective immediately, any team can be an #openalliance member.
