We are Momentum Robotics, a community-based FIRST Robotics Competition team founded in 2016 and operating out of Sato Academy of Math & Science. With members from high schools across Long Beach, we design, build, and compete with 150lb robots against thousands of teams worldwide. Each match challenges us to collaborate with new teams and strategize on the fly, fostering innovation, teamwork, and leadership.
Beyond competition, we apply engineering skills to real-world projects—from CAD and manufacturing to soldering and programming—guided by mentors from top engineering industries. Our students gain hands-on experience and inspire others through outreach events at schools and community STEM nights. Alumni have gone on to top universities like MIT, Caltech, and UC Berkeley.
As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit under Shared Science, we also manage operations like budgeting, grant writing, and fundraising. With generous support from sponsors like Boeing, Raytheon, and the Port of Long Beach, we offer scholarships and free team dinners, but our season costs over $20,000. Your donation helps us build robots, run outreach programs, and empower future STEM leaders.
Team Momentum thanks you for your support!
