Don't worry about that, there are robotics clubs in NYC with mostly adults and engineers in college , but there are a couple of high school students there too.

oh
then I think you should get started on your own ( without robotics clubs) , and just use the internet

hmmm a good and fun way to get started in my opinion is the Parralax Boe Bot, it used the Basic Stamp II mmicrocontroler comes with a book on programming and there are many more BSII books.  I made one that would avoid objects with a ping radar sensor on a 180 degrees servo to look around when it detected something and choose the clearest course, i almost one too( first two judges gave me top score) but my third stupid judge didnt think i did it       with this kit, its very fun to get started with microcontrolers and you can work up to soem pretty good litle bots quickly.

lol, I already have the Boe-Bot!

is there any other ways I can learn more on robots then(not independently)?

Your age doesn't matter, show an interest and after a while they'll take you seriously.!
