The Czech Republic's national robotics team. This October we take our robot to Incheon, South Korea, to compete against teams from more than 190 countries.
Until the competition opens in Incheon
Every year, each country sends a single national team of high school students to design, build and program a robot, then compete against the rest of the world. It's the largest youth robotics event on the planet, and it moves to a new host country every year.
This year's game is built around one of the planet's growing problems: wildfires.
The 2026 theme, "Igniting Innovation", asks teams to build robots around wildfire prevention, mitigation and recovery. Every alliance plays the same game, so the difference comes down to design, strategy and teamwork.
Our ten-student team has spent the season designing, building and programming the robot, and now we're taking it to Korea to see how it stacks up against the world.
Meet the 2026 team designing, building, programming and driving our robot.
