There are over 2,800 FTC teams throughout the world; only 128 teams were invited to compete at this level, and Da Peeps successfully fought their way to the semi-finals before being beaten. They were also nominated for the Connect Award by a team of judges which honored them for their extensive community outreach efforts.
