Rumble into So Cal’s biggest, baddest robotics competition. Robots designed by teams of 2,000 students from 59 US high schools battle each other in this FREE to see two-day regional competition – one of 23 in the nation – to determine who goes on to the national championship. Each team is given the same kit of parts provided by the mentoring group, FIRST, For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology (www.usfirst.org). Teams have six weeks to design and build their creations. Seeding matches start at 9:30AM, final rounds the second afternoon. If you can’t see the largest high school robotics competition in person, check out NASA’s Web cast or NASA’s cable channel.
