Friendly competition is at the heart of Challenge, as teams of students ages 9-14 or grades 2 through 4 engage in research, problem-solving, coding and engineering – building and programming a LEGO robot that navigates the missions of a robot game. As part of Challenge, teams also participate in a research project to identify and solve a relevant real-world problem.
FIRST has created a set of getting started videos.
