Bots vs Bots: Ultimate Robot Soccer

Weekly schedule

About this program

Get ready for the most exciting robotics program of the year. In this hands-on course, students design, build, and engineer their very own robot using VEX IQ — then take it onto the field to compete in a real 2v2 robot soccer league. Every session brings a new engineering challenge: tuning your drivetrain for speed and control, designing a ball mechanism that can outmaneuver the competition, and refining your robot based on what you learned from last week's class. It's not just building — it's building with a purpose. Throughout the course, participants will: • Design and build their own robot from the ground up • Develop and test custom ball-handling mechanisms to gain a competitive edge on the field • Learn the same iterative design process used by real-world robotics engineers — build, test, improve, repeat • Develop teamwork and critical thinking as they strategize with their partner and adapt to the competition • Compete in a Championship match where robots, skills, and strategy are put to the ultimate test COMPETITION: Sunday, Nov. 1 at North Delta Centre for the Arts Theatre from 3-5pm. Refund Policy: A prorated refund is available for any withdrawals prior to the start of the 3rd class. Once the 3rd class starts, no refund will be provided.
