Every September, FIRST Lego League (FLL) announces a new game for the year that focuses on a different real-world topic related to the sciences. The program was piloted in 1999[note 1] and has continued every year.
FLL World Festival, the championship competition, is held in April in conjuction with the other FIRST Championships.
Junior FIRST Lego League (Jr. FLL), a scaled-down version of FLL, shares the same challenge themes as FLL.
For ever
In FLL, two teams with one lego robot each compete at the same time on adjoining tables. The tables are identical and rotated 180 degrees to each other. A match lasts two and a half minutes (150 seconds) in which the teams complete as many missions as they are able.
The pilot challenge required the robot to navigate an obstacle course in the minimum time.[1] About 210 teams[2] competed at two events.[3]
The inagural FLL game was FIRST Contact. Unlike following years, the field was not divided for the two teams to operate separately.
Also, the mission models were largely made of wood, not Lego bricks.
Match length - 3 minutes
Volcanic Panic was based on saving a village from an imminent volcanic eruption.
Arctic Impact
City Sights
Mission Mars
