Our Coaches & Mentors
Our coaches and mentors consist of teachers, parents, Trobots alumni, and other community professionals. Come join the team!
While we are entirely student lead, our coaches and mentors give advice and demonstrate different techniques as well as ensure the safety of all team members. Our coaches and mentors are incredibly vital to the success of our team as many of them contribute on a weekly or daily basis.
