FIRST LEGO League (FLL) is an exciting and fun global
robotics program that ignites an enthusiasm for discovery,
science, and technology in kids ages 9 to 14.
Each year FLL teams embark on an adventurous Challenge based
on current, real-world issues. Guided by a team coach and
assisted by mentors, the kids research and solve a
real-world problem based on the Challenge theme, present
their research and solutions, and build an autonomous robot
using engineering concepts.

Using the yearly Challenges, FLL
entices kids to think like scientists
and engineers, provides a fun, creative,
hands-on learning experience, teaches
kids to experiment and overcome
obstacles, builds self-esteem and
confidence, and inspires kids to
participate in science and technology.
No matter what the child's subject
interest, FLL offers an opportunity for
engagement. Whether it is by creativity,
technology, or research, FLL dares kids
to test, explore, expand, or completely
change thoughts and approaches for
different sciences each year.
