Event Description
Welcome to our 2nd Annual ROBOTICON Rumble! Held as part of our long-running ROBOTICON STEM Showcase - now in its 11th season - ROBOTICON's Combat Robotics competition is a relatively new addition to our suite of K-12 robotics and drone competitions, and an increasingly popular event. Here's the basics:
Event Info

- A pre-paid registration of $20 per bot is required, which goes towards prize money for the top winners in each class. Once your bot is approved, teams will get a link to pay their fee.
- Prize Purse: Cash prize as a split on registration fees divided between first/second/third place and vie for the Rusty Wrench Award - which may be an actual rust wrench or a laser cut version, but it'll be a wrench! - given to the top bot in each category!
