Last weekend, Inverse Paradox attended Robots@Mary Ward, graciously hosted by @mwardrobotics and @frc1334. To sum it up, it was an absolute success!

On our first day, we ranked 3rd after qualification matches, becoming captains of the second alliance. Alongside @frc1241 and @team854 , we played hard and finished as event winners!

The second day was a bit more special, as we attended with an all-girls drive team and pit crew! Following a qualifications of 4 wins and 3 losses, we joined @team188 and @northview6632 as alliance 3 and ended our run in match 13. Our girls were absolutely fantastic!

Thank you to our alliance partners, the event hosts, volunteers, parents, and mentors who made this event the amazing experience it was.

Recently, our gracious sponsor, MHI Canada Aerospace, hosted a charity golf event in support of our team, to which we are immensely grateful. We would also like to thank the hosting club, @glenabbeygolfclub, for their help and accommodation throughout the day. For this event, we created a golf robot and posed a challenge to all the golfers: try to get closer to the hole than the bot!

Strong partnerships make meaningful impact possible, and this continued support is helping to turn a high school competition into a space for real world experiences. We wish to extend our thanks to @mhicanada and all of the attendees for helping to accelerate the success of the next generation of engineers, innovators, and leaders. by @frc1325

After a few months since the World Championships, we traveled to West Virginia to compete at WVROX! Following a great run of 20-4 in qualifications, we became captains of alliance 2 and ultimately finished as finalists!

Huge shoutout to our alliance partners @frcteam195 and powerhawks for playing alongside us throughout the playoffs.

A massive thank you to hosts @mars_2614 and all the volunteers for putting together such a spectacular event! Finally, we’d like to thank our mentors, sponsors, and parents, who made going to the event all possible.

EVE isnt done quite yet— we still have 3 more off-season events left to go and a lot more planned in the future. Make sure to keep an eye out for what comes out next 💙 by @frc1325

Happy International Parents Day!

As the both the season and the school year draw close to an end, we'd like to take some time to appreciate those who have supported us through it all. Through thick and thin, the highs and the lows, our parents have continuously cheered us on without fail. Waking up before sunrise to bring us to competitions, providing an endless supply of donuts and timbits, driving us home after late meetings— they are far from easy feats. Yet, our parents have done this all throughout the season and we are eternally grateful. Your support does not go unnoticed, and our thanks cannot simply be expressed in words.

We'd also like to give a shoutout to our Food Subteam, comprised of parent volunteers who keep us fed at all of our events! They ensure that we get a variety of nutritious and filling meals, even all the way down South in Houston, Texas. Throughout the season, our members have had their fair share of meal from different cultures, as well as warm, home (or competition?) cooked meals, all thanks to this subteam. They are absolutely incredible, and we are so, so grateful to have them.

Thank you, parents! We love you 💙💙

As a two-time scouting lead and our 2025 Student Leadership Award nominee, Yusuf has proven his dedication to the team. As a scouting lead, his job is to train students to scout every year, as well as create the scouting schedule at each event. However, his work also extends past just this subteam, sharing his ideas regarding robot design, helping in FLL, and avidly participating in outreach events! We'll miss him after he graduates, but we can't wait to see what else he'll accomplish in the future! by @frc1325

We'd like to thank everyone who has helped us during our journey and we hope you continue to support us as we continue to grow in the years to come!
