Sumo Compition

Sumo Battle Bots

One of our most popular programs is Sumo Battle Robots. It combines LEGO robots and battling. In this workshop we will introduce you to the basics of robot programming and help you build your own weapons. This workshop culminates with the Ultimate Sumo Championship where everyone gets several chances to test and improve their robots.

If you have done Sumo before here is your chance to concentrate on better weapons and strategies. If you are new to Sumo here is your chance to experience the most popular robot competition in the world.
