VEX IQ Robotics Competition Level Up is played on a 6’ x 8’ rectangular field configured as seen above. Two robots compete in the Teamwork Challenge as an alliance in 60 second long teamwork matches, working collaboratively to score points.

Teams also compete in the Robot Skills Challenge where one robot takes the field to score as many points as possible. These matches consist of Driving Skills Matches, which will be entirely driver controlled, and Autonomous Coding Skills Matches, which will be autonomous with limited human interaction.

The scoring objects in VEX IQ Robotics Competition Level Up are 3" x 4" Bean Bags.

The primary objectives of the game is to score Bean Bags into Goals. Higher Goals earn more points. A Robot can only carry one Bean Bag at a time, and most Bean Bags have to travel across the entire Field to reach their Goals.

Teams have to decide whether to drive a long path or design their Robot to fit through the narrow shortcuts on the Field.
