Introducing the Team Captain for FRC#11214 the [cy]BEARCATS rookie robotics team from Bainbridge High School, Scarlett Rivera! Scarlett is the definition of "small but mighty,"
As a rookie team, we needed a leader who could do it all—and Scarlett has delivered. From the build room to the driver station, her leadership and technical skills have been the glue holding us together.
To everyone who coached, taught, and supported our team and Scarlett this season: Thank you. You didn’t just help a student; you helped build a leader. We’re ready to take the floor!

Connecting the dots (and the rivets) here in Dalton! 🛠️⚡️
A huge thank you to Georgia Power for jumping in today to help us grind down the rivets on our drive board. Safety is our top priority, and their expertise helped us get competition-ready in no time. As rookies from Bainbridge, GA, our theme—Building a Bridge to Beyond—isn't just a catchy phrase; it’s our reality. In a town of 14,500, starting an FRC team was a bold leap of faith. We know a robot doesn't move on code and motors alone; it moves on the momentum of a community. That’s why we were thrilled to have the Georgia Power team sign one of our "Gears." ⚙️
Why the Gears?
On (cy)BEARCATS Team 11214, every signed gear in our pit represents a vital connection heloing build bridges for our team:
Talent: The mentors who share their skills.
Treasure: The sponsors who make this possible.
Time: The families who support us every step of the way.
These signatures are the literal "teeth" of our drivetrain. We are so grateful for every gear we’ve collected during this build season and here at the Dalton tournament. Together, we aren't just building a robot—we’re building a bridge from a bold idea to the competition floor.

The [CY]BEARCAT FRC# 11214 rookie season is officially underway, and we just hit a massive milestone: by passing our very first robot inspection with flying colors! No rebuilds, no frantic wiring fixes—just a big green checkmark on the first try. Thank you to our incredible build team for their precision and to Mr. Kelley for guiding us through each of our FIRSTS building and engineering KitCat! We would also like to shout out all the support and help from Team 6919, the Commodores who have been with us each step of the journey--especially when we had hardware failure earlier in the build season.
Now the batteries are on the chargers, the code is deployed, and the team is hyped. We are officially ready to hit the field for our first-ever competition tomorrow!
