The Lake Minneola High School Nerds of Prey Robotics team is proud to host our tournament for VEX IQ Robotics Competition™ Level Up™ held at Lake Minneola High School in Minneola, FL.
The tournament is an Elementary School tournament only. Specific award winners will qualify for the North/Central Florida Regional Championship.
This event will include a teamwork championship, skills challenge and judging. We are also hosting Middle Schools that day, so we may have to combine the events if registration is low.
Skills will end promptly at the conclusion of Qualification Matches!
