2025/26 Event Calendar
Below you will find our calendar of upcoming events for the year. It is essential to register for a scrimmage if you wish to compete at the event. Unregistered teams will not be able to compete at scrimmages from Term 3 onwards, unless it is classified as an open-day level scrimmage.
For most teams the robotics year culminates in the Kiwibots VEX New Zealand Nationals in February. We hope to have teams attending the world championships should they qualify at Nationals.
