Designed for students ages 9-14
FIRST® LEGO® League (FLL) gives students ages 4-14 and their adult Mentors the opportunity to work and create together to solve a common problem. There are 3 FIRST® LEGO® League divisions: Discover, Explore and Challenge. FIRST Alberta is the host for the Explore and Challenge competitions.
FIRST® LEGO® League Challenge for ages 9-14, grades 4-8*: Challenged to research a real-world problem, then create an original solution for that problem, plus design and build a robot using a LEGO® Spike Prime kit within a common set of rules to accomplish “missions” on a playing field, brings out the best in students. The theme changes each season, requiring teams to be extraordinarily creative. *In Alberta, Junior High Schools serve students from grades 7-9 and are permitted to have their grade 9 students participate on a FIRST Lego League Challenge Team. Older students are encouraged to join the FIRST Tech Challenge program.
FIRST Alberta brings your student the opportunity to join an FLL Challenge Robotics Team that will design and build a LEGO® Mindstorms® EV3 or Spike Prime Robot to compete in a FIRST® LEGO® League Challenge Competition.
