The FIRST LEGO League (FLL) is an international competition that inspires youth (ages 9-16 globally, 9-14 in the US and Canada) to engage in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) through hands-on robotics challenges. Team’s design and program robots using LEGO technology to complete missions on a thematic playing field, work on a project to solve a real-world problem based on the annual theme, and adhere to FLL Core Values, promoting teamwork, innovation, and sportsmanship. Each season features a new theme, encouraging participants to explore current scientific issues and develop critical thinking, problem-solving, and communication skills. FLL fosters STEM learning in a fun, collaborative environment, preparing participants for future careers in STEM fields.
