Another awesome scrimmage day in the books!!! We had over 30 teams come to run their robots, talk with judge, and network with other teams. We saw great core values and gracious professionalism all day. Teams walked away feeling excited and energized.

Huge thank you to Azalea Middle School for hosting, all our volunteers who helped make the event run successfully and on time and to Pinellas County Schools for being a great partner with our region.

What a day at the FIRST LEGO League BIOGLOW Scrimmage in Brevard County!

Teams brought their robots, research, and plenty of Gracious Professionalism® to the tables. It was amazing to watch students test their missions, learn from each other, and get ready for the season ahead!

Thank you to our sponsors and volunteers for making this season possible!

A special thanks to Westshore Jr/Sr High School for hosting!
