The Americas SuperRegional is a premier event that gathers young robotics enthusiasts from across North, Central, and South America. At this competition, participants have the chance to demonstrate their skills, creativity, and achievements in robotics on an international stage.
The event celebrates technical excellence, problem-solving, and innovation, while fostering collaboration and camaraderie among young talents. The SuperRegional is also a unique opportunity for cultural exchange and networking, bringing together students from diverse backgrounds to share experiences and learn from each other. Beyond advancing technical education and teamwork, the event promotes a deeper understanding and appreciation of the rich cultural perspectives across the Americas.
This will be a platform for students to compete beyond local or national events. The SuperRegional competitions were created to provide international experience to more teams, including primary teams. However, since there has not been a SuperRegional competition in the Americas, this opportunity has been lacking for younger students. We are excited to offer this opportunity to RoboCupJunior students.
Friday, April 25 - Tuesday, April 29
The event will take place at Mercersburg Academy’s Hale Field House. The space comprises the 200-meter Reeder Track, four tennis courts, four basketball courts, two sand pits, dropdown batting cages, and a lacrosse wall. The building allows Mercersburg athletic teams to benefit from year-round indoor space that can accommodate practices, training, and competitions. It also serves as a space for external events such as RoboCupJunior Americas SuperRegional.
We are able to accommodate two teams per school/institution per league in the United States. Teams should work with their school or institution representative for permission to use one of the slots for registration.
We are able to accommodate three teams per country/region in the Americas, outside of the United States, per league. Teams should work with their regional representatives for permission to use one of the country slots for registration.
In addition, we will have a waiting list for extra teams that would like to compete above and beyond the country/school limit. Teams will need to submit proof of progress on their robot in the form of a technical paper.
If there is availability, we will open team slots beyond the Americas at the beginning of 2025 for teams from other regions (i.e., Asia, Pacific, Europe, Middle East). Teams will need to submit proof of progress on their robot in the form of a technical paper.
Teams outstide of the Americas can request a slot and send their technical paper to info@robocupamericas.org.
Team cost: $300 USD, with each team member, mentor, or chaperone being an additional $100 USD. For example, a team with four students, a mentor, and two chaperones would be $1,000 USD.
Registration closes on March 14, 2025.
