In the fall of 2004, MadTown Robotics was founded by math teacher Alan Hollman at Madera High School. The team was originally comprised of only four members and one mentor that worked out of a small classroom, building a robot out of wood. MadTown Robotics debuted at the World Championship in Atlanta, Georgia, in 2006. Our team has steadily increased in size and reputation over the past 13 years.

Since our inception, we have traveled to 11 out of 13 World Championships and won numerous awards. What started out as a handful of students transformed into a fully-functioning team of 50 students and around 100 active sponsors.
