Robotics League
(Registration is CLOSED for the 2024-2025 season yet!)
At Area 59 – sixty seconds is all you get to maneuver your robot on the field, picking up, moving and pitching field elements to score points. Driving is only part of the equation, robots are also programmed to operate without driver input as they navigate the field by processing code entered by team members. Teams are also required to keep an engineering notebook that documents the build of their robot, the obstacles they faced, and the solutions they discovered. Sound like fun?
League activities will continue through February culminating in a state championship held at the Gillette College Pronghorn Center. Winners of the state championship may then be eligible to compete in 2025 VEX Robotics World Championship where students will have the opportunity to compete with teams from around the world!
Elementary school team members should be students born after May 1, 2013 (i.e. who will be 12 or younger at VEX Worlds 2025). The cost is $125 per individual. Need based scholarships are available. Teams will be formed with at least 4 members per team.
