Description: The "little league" of the FIRST Robotics Competition, the FIRST LEGO League provides children aged 9 through 14 opportunities for hands-on experimentation in a real-world context. With the help of LEGO MINDSTORMS Robotics Invention System technology, young participants can build a robot and compete in a friendly, FIRST-style robotics event specially designed for their age group. Using LEGO bricks and other elements such as sensors, motors, and gears, teams gain hands-on experience in engineering and computer programming principles as they construct and program their unique robot inventions. Up to ten students may participate on a team, which must have at least one coach. Registration is open from May through September. The LEGO League Challenge starts in September once registration closes.
