About Team 1099

What is Team 1099?

Team 1099 is made up of high school students from Brookfield and Newtown High Schools. Students meet once a week during the fall and spring to learn about robots, leadership skills, team building, fundraising and public relations. During January until the middle of February the students meet every night and on weekends to actually design and build a robot that will meet the challenge for that year. They also create a web site, an animation, and The Chairman’s Award Entry (a summary of what we have accomplished for the year) to name a few.
