More updates will be shared ahead of the season launch on January 9, 2027.
FIRST Robotics Competition BIOCORE
®
Each January brings a new challenge for FIRST® Robotics Competition (ages 14-18 / grades 9-12) teams. Starting with a Kit of Parts, they design, program, and build industrial-sized robots to play an action-packed game as part of a three-team alliance.
In 360-degree learning guided by mentors, students learn engineering and problem-solving skills as they compete for awards, hone teamwork skills, raise funds to meet team goals, and advance appreciation for STEM in their community.
On January 9, 2027, FIRST Robotics Competition teams will delve into the heart of what sustains life on Earth in the BIOCORE™ presented by Haas season game.
FIRST Robotics Competition Southern Cross Regional
The FRC Southern Cross Regional is Australia’s premier FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) event, bringing high-school robotics teams together for a weekend of innovation, competition, and inspiration. Held annually at the Penrith Valley Regional Sports Centre in Cambridge Park, NSW, the event sees teams from across Australia — and sometimes abroad — design, build, and program industrial-sized robots to compete in the current season’s challenge game.
