Our socially-distanced outdoor Atrium VEX Arena

  •  Our School Atrium will transform into a VEX competition arena with four separate VEX pitches. The set-up of the stadium will be outdoor and shaded with multi-story viewing points of the pitches. Each school will have a physically-distanced and spacious resting area to relax in between contests.

Vex Atrium

How do the VEX Robotics Nationals work? 

  • In the lead up to the competition, teams work hard to build their robots using the preallocated parts. The preallocated parts are the same for every team and are designed for the VEX Nationals game 'Pitching In'.

  • 'Pitching In' is a cooperative game for which two robots need to work together to throw balls into a central hoop. Points are awarded for scored goals. Then, at the end of the game, robots are required to hang from a set of bars on the pitch. The more points awarded, the better! 

  • Winners can receive trips to the global round of the competition, where the best of the best robot builders from around the world go to compete.

VEX Nationals Preparation 

St Andrews students have been working hard to engineer their robots to be their best for Nationals.
