FIRST® LEGO® League Challenge

2026-2027 BIOGLOW™ Founders Edition for FIRST® LEGO® League Challenge

Season Overview

Register teams of two to ten children in grades 4-8. Teams need at least 2 adult coaches/mentors.

Students will:

  1. Build and program a small LEGO robot to accomplish challenges.
  2. Investigate a research topic then prepare a presentation.
  3. Build a team around the FIRST LEGO League Core Values.

Teams practice regularly (just like a sports team) to prepare for a tournament at which they will meet and share their work with other teams.

Participate in FIRST LEGO League Challenge Tournaments. Event details vary by region.

See Calendar for event schedule.
