Older Competitions

2003 - Stack Attack

During the 2003 competition called Stack Attack, teams in alliances of two attempt to stack square containers in scoring zones on opposite ends of the playing field. The field is divided by a ramp with a flat top, which holds a majority of the game's containers. Points are scored by creating stacks of containers or by placing containers into their scoring zones. Bonus points are earned by placing the containers into stacks and by driving to the top of the center ramp at the end of the match.

2002- Zone Zeal

The 2002 competition, Zone Zeal, had teams working in alliances of two, trying to place balls into moving goals. The goals were then pushed into one of five zones on the playing field. The blue alliance scored bonus points for having goals in zone 4, and for ending the match with robots in zone 1. The red alliance scored bonus points for having goals in zone 2 and for ending the match with robots in zone 5.

2001 Game - Dyabolical Dynamics

The 2001 game, Diabolical Dynamics has four teams working in one alliance to score as many points as possible. Teams try to place small balls into cylindrical goals. Extra points are scored by capping off the goals with large balls. This game is a wonderful example of how FIRST brings people together to work as a team to acheive a common goal.

2000 Game - CO-Opertition FIRST

The 2000 game, Co-Operation FIRST has teams working in alliances of two in order to place yellow and black balls into a goal. Teams begin the match with seven yellow balls and one black ball, with others on the far ends of the playing field.

1999 - Double Trouble
