Through a series of story-based missions, teams develop problem-solving skills, a growth mindset, and tap into their creativity all while learning to code.

This unique competition highlights the amazing role robotics and coding play in solving real-world problems, and prepares your child or student for the jobs of tomorrow.

The Wonder League Robotics Competition has reached over 90,000 kids in 65 countries and counting!

THIS YEAR’S THEME

Time Travel With Powers of 10

As we celebrate the tenth anniversary of the competition, we also celebrate the Powers of 10!

As a coach, you’ll lead your team through exciting time-traveling adventures, from 10 to 10,000 years ago, and even 1,000 years into the future.

With the TimeCoder 3000, Dash embarks on this epic journey, exploring key moments in history to unlock the future!

Each mission takes your team to a different point in time, challenging their problem-solving skills. Can they help Dash find the way home?

The competition runs from October to April in a fully flexible, virtual format, allowing students to work at their own pace and submit solutions online.
