Wonder League Announces This Year’s Winners

This year’s competition brought coding to life with a series of story-based missions featuring the impactful and exciting role robotics plays in space exploration. The competition received entries from around the world in two categories: The Innovator Cup (six- to eight-year-old) and The Pioneer Cup (nine- to twelve-year-old). All the Missions encouraged collaboration, sparked creativity, and engaged teams of one-to-five members in real-world problem solving. Teams completing five missions from November 2022 – January 2023 were invited to join up to 1,000 teams globally to compete in the final Invitational Round for $5,000 in Wonder Workshop products for their school as well as other prizes.

“Wonder Workshop is committed to preparing the next generation of young innovators and pioneers by providing resources to foster their creativity so they can find solutions to societal challenges. The Wonder League Robotics Competition offers hands-on practice of coding and empowers children to truly see their ability to tackle problems,” said Bryan Miller, Senior Director, Global Strategic Outreach, Wonder Workshop. “We’re excited by the fresh ideas, spirit, and innovation that came out of this year’s Wonder League Robotics Competition.”

Launched in 2015, the Concurso de Robótica Wonder League has now reached more than 87,500 kids globally. This growing network of coding and robotics teams uses our all-inclusive program to inspire an early love of coding, computer science, tangible learning, and STEAM education. Through a series of story-based missions, the teams develop problem-solving, growth mindset, and creativity skills while learning to code. This year, the competition introduced a “People’s Choice Awards” element as an option for teams to proudly share their mission solutions for support from their communities.
