Game Day 2020 |
Home |
Dallas BEST Robotics is an all volunteer group of engineers, technologists, and anyone else interested in promoting STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) to middle, junior, and senior high school students through an annual robotics competition. Materials are provided to the teams at no cost thanks to our generous corporate contributions. Dallas BEST generally accepts teams from Dallas, Rockwall, Kaufman counties, and other counties as appropriate. Coronavirus Concerns: We are making accommodations to address the COVID-19 pandemic. The national organizers have replaced the originally planned “Incision Decision” game theme with a more flexible “Outbreak” theme with optional levels of operation that may differ between BEST hubs. Our Dallas hub has decided to use the “Moderate Risk” plan referred to as “Classroom Competition”, with only interaction between students and teachers/coaches of the same team. The 2020 competition, “Outbreak”, is closed for registration. Details for the contest were revealed on Kickoff Day in September. Teams are typically school based or home school co-ops. If you have a team interested in participating next year, please contact us using this email link. If you are a new team, please provide some details about your students (how many, age/grade range, any experience in robotics contests) and we will reply with the registration details. Other nearby hubs include Cowtown BEST and CoCo BEST. Our milestone event dates for 2020 will followed an 8 week schedule: For additional details, follow this link Advancing teams competed at:

The volunteers and participants of Dallas BEST Robotics would like to thank our sponsors for supporting the annual contest. The financial support provided by Texas Instruments and the TI Foundation enabled Dallas BEST Robotics to impact over 600 students across 30 teams during the six-week competition.

We hope we can count on support from TI in the future so we can continue our mission to inspire students to pursue STEM careers.
