Welcome to FLL Challenge
FLL Challenge is a FIRST Robotics program for 4th-5th graders. “Friendly competition is at the heart of Challenge, as teams of students engage in research, problem-solving, coding, and engineering – building and programming a LEGO robot that navigates the missions of a robot game.”
Bloomfield Hills has multiple FLL teams across the district and teams are formed based on which school a student attends. Typically teams are between 8-10 students and we try to keep friends together! Students at this level have the opportunity to compete against other teams in the area.
It is important for any robotics family (new or returning) to join our email list. We send monthly newsletters, information on how to register for the robotics season, summer camp and more. Be sure to subscribe if you haven’t already and share this page with any BHSD family interested in robotics. Contact us at info@bloomfieldrobotics.com
Registration
Team registration is limited and will end June 15. After June 15, students can be put on a waitlist which will close at the end of summer. FLL Challenge season starts August 1 and typically ends in December. Teams will compete in at least one local event. During the 2024-2025 FIRST season, FIRST® DIVE℠ presented by Qualcomm, teams will use their STEM and collaboration skills to explore life beneath the surface of the ocean. Along the way, we’ll uncover the potential in each of us to strengthen our community and innovate for a better world with healthy oceans. Join us as we explore the future.. Students should be entering grades 4-5 fall 2024. The cost for FLL Challenge is $200.
Coaches
FLL Challenge Coaches will be communicating with each other and Bloomfield Robotics administrators through the app/website BAND. Resources, ideas, and important notices will be shared there. Email us at info@bloomfieldrobotics.com if you are a coach or assistant coach and have not received an invite.
