Who are we?
The Foley Freeze is a FIRST robotics team based out of Bishop Foley Catholic High School in Madison Heights, Michigan. Known as Team 910 in the First Robotics Competition (FRC), we have participated in the program since 2002. We are a diverse, collaborative team of engineers, designers, programmers and creatives working toward a shared goal of advancing STEM and the mission of FIRST.
Growth of Team 910
In its rookie year, The Foley Freeze had seven students and has since grown to nearly 40 students and more than 20 mentors that the team reaches to for guidance and leadership. The team is comprised of a diverse group of students that makes up approximately 15% of the school population.
The Foley Freeze ranked nationally in 2007 and has continuously gained worldwide recognition, consistently ranking high in competitions and winning multiple awards over the years. However, it’s not the awards that we are proud of, but rather, the impact on the lives of the young men and women who have come through the robotics program at Bishop Foley Catholic.
This season
We are currently designing and building our robot for the 2026 game REBUILT, while also concentrating on community outreach and team promotion through the Glacial Gazette and social media. Everyone on the team gives their best work to ensure that being a member of the Foley Freeze is a title to be proud of.
Team 910 would be nowhere without funding from corporate sponsors, local businesses, and many family and friends. Our mentors, many of whom are Bishop Foley Catholic alumni themselves, are a big part of our success, working endlessly with the students to create a successful team. We take pride in the extensive involvement and support from our “Foley Family.”
