Annual challenge

Each year FIRST LEGO League^® teams explore real-world challenges engineers and scientists are working to overcome. Each set of challenges focuses on a theme. As a part of the challenge theme, teams will create an innovative solution to one of the challenges faced by society. They will also build, design, and program a LEGO^® robot to compete on a 4’x8’ competition table and manipulate LEGO models representing the challenges engineers and scientists are working on within the theme.  Each year’s theme is released in August.
