High School VEX Robotics Competition

Competition Robotics & AI Program for Teens (Ages 14–17)

High School VEX Robotics Competition Program Overview

At Boswin Robotics Mississauga, our High School VEX Robotics Competition program prepares students ages 14–17 for the future of technology, engineering, and AI-driven robotics. By learning robotics programming, sensors, automation, AI concepts, and 3D design, teens sharpen computational thinking and team-based problem-solving skills—essential for STEM and AI careers as well as everyday life.

Students get the opportunity to design, build, and code robots in preparation for the prestigious VEX V5 Robotics Competition. Top-performing teams can qualify for provincial, national, and global tournaments, applying both robotics and AI skills to real-world challenges.

2025–26 Game: VEX Robotics Competition – High Stakes

  • Played on a 12’ x 12’ field with two alliances (Red and Blue), each made up of two teams.
  • Matches consist of a 15-second Autonomous Period and a 1:45 Driver Controlled Period.
  • The object of the game is to attain a higher score than the opposing Alliance by Scoring Blocks in Goals, Controlling zones within said Goals, and Parking within defined zones at the end of the Match.
  • There are 88 blocks, 4 goals, and 2 park zones (1 per alliance). Each block scored is worth 3 points. Alliances can receive points for controlling zones in Goals and for parking at the end of matches.
  • Bonus points are awarded for winning the Autonomous Period and for completing specific tasks during that time.

Location:

  • Boswin Robotics, 2210 Dunwin Dr., Unit #1, Mississauga, ON, L5L 1C7
  • Spaces are limited. Enrol early to reserve your spot in the Mississauga robotics club that turns young coders into confident competitors.
