FIRST Lego League (FLL) is a program that supports children and youngsters in order to introduce them to science and technology in a sporty atmosphere. Watch a FLL Tournament in a cheerful atmosphere where kids and youngsters need to solve a tricky “mission” with the help of a robot.

The kids are researching a given topic within a team, they are planning programming and testing an autonomous robot to solve the mission. The FLL Teams take the opportunity to experience all steps of a real product development process: solving a problem under time pressure with insufficient resources and unknown competitors. FLL is a small microcosm of real business life in all its respects.

Admission is free and all are welcome.

Hosted by the Tuxedo Pandas robotics team, New River Robotics Association and Montgomery County Public Schools.
