XTREMESTEM.org Presents:
Inside the NRL National Championship & the Power of Mentorship in High School Robotics
On May 10th in Springfield, Ohio, the top 50 high school robotics teams from across the U.S. converged to battle it out for the National Robotics League (NRL) Championship Title. These elite teams competed with 15-pound combat robots designed, built, and programmed by students, combining engineering, innovation, and competitive spirit in a one-of-a-kind event.
Hosted by XTREME STEM / XTREME BOTS, this action-packed competition showcases student-built robots similar to those seen on the hit TV show BattleBots. Participants gain hands-on experience in STEM education, mechanical engineering, problem-solving, and team collaboration, all while learning the real-world value of mentorship and career readiness.
Tune into IMAGiNE FiTTiNG IN as we dive into exclusive event coverage, student, parent and XTremeStem.org interviews, and insights on how robotics is shaping the future of tech-savvy youth to support the manufacturing and engineering business communities across the country.
