Teams of pupils aged 9 to 16 build and program LEGO robots, research the season's theme and present their solutions – with their mentors and the support of our association.
FIRST LEGO League is an international STEM programme where teams use robotics, research and teamwork to solve challenges inspired by real-world problems. Participants design, build and programme robots, develop innovative solutions and present their ideas to judges.
Each season introduces a new global theme, from oceans and space to energy, arts and other real-world challenges. Because of that, teams learn something new each year and develop different solutions.
FIRST LEGO League in Montenegro is organised by the NGO Association of Young Innovators and Inventors of Montenegro (UMIPCG).
In Montenegro we run the Challenge programme, for pupils aged 9 to 16. A team has up to 10 members and at least two adult mentors – from a school, a club or a group of friends. No prior robotics experience is needed.
Get in touch and tell us whether you're putting a team together, want to mentor, or are looking for a team for your child. We'll reply with the next steps for the season.
