We brought home GOLD!
22 October 2024Thanks to your incredible support, we made it to Athens and represented the Cook Islands on the world stage! Over three thrilling days, our team competed in 12 matches against 36 countries, forming alliances with 24 nations. We faced challenges head-on, including a tough technical issue in one match, but every experience helped us grow stronger.
Out of 180 teams, we placed 60th, earning us a spot in the Finals thanks to a random draw selecting six additional teams. Joining forces with Team China, Moldova, and Madagascar in the Semi-Finals and Finals was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that pushed us to our limits.
Together, our Alliance scored an astonishing 338 points in the Finals, securing the GOLD medal! This historic win marks a milestone not just for our Robotics Club, but for the entire Cook Islands community.
We are deeply grateful for your encouragement, generosity, and belief in us. This achievement belongs to all of us. A huge Meitaki Ma'ata for making this journey possible! See full results: https://results.first.global/
