View competitionsUseful competition guidance
Finding a suitable robotics competition is about more than seeing a date on a poster. A useful event listing tells a student what problem they will solve, who can enter, how teams are formed and what must be completed before registration closes. This page collects Robotic Sir's currently published opportunities in one place so teams can begin with verified information.
Competition schedules, formats and entry availability can change as an event is organised. For that reason, each card links to its own official page. Read that page before you pay, travel, build to a specification or promise a team member a place. If a future competition has not yet been published, it will not be presented here as confirmed.

Make an informed choice
Understand the task first: whether it involves autonomous navigation, a robotics project, a design presentation or another published format. The brief should make the expected outcome clear.
Check the eligible age group or level, the minimum and maximum team size, and whether a school, parent or mentor needs to be involved.
Separate the event date from the registration deadline. Leave enough time to assemble a team, source permitted components and test the robot before either date.
Confirm robot dimensions, allowed power sources, software or communication restrictions, inspection requirements and safety rules from the published rulebook.
Plan with confidence
Build with purpose
Read the brief together and turn it into a list of requirements, questions and milestones.
Assign ownership for mechanical design, electronics, code, testing and documentation—one person may cover more than one area in a small team.
Build an early prototype, then test under conditions that resemble the published challenge rather than only testing individual parts.
Keep a short test log. It makes it easier to spot recurring faults, compare improvements and explain your engineering process on competition day.

Competition FAQ
Check the published competition page for the current format, eligibility, dates, registration deadline and official registration link. Event information can change, so always use the competition detail page as the source of truth before applying.
Eligibility depends on the individual competition. Review the event page for age or grade requirements, team size, robot specifications, fees and submission rules before registering.
Start with the challenge brief, build and test a prototype early, document each iteration and practise explaining your design choices. Hands-on robotics courses can help develop the electronics, programming and problem-solving skills used in competition projects.
Use the event rulebook as the checklist. Teams commonly need a tested robot, permitted tools and spare parts, power supplies, code backups and any required identity or consent documents. Do not assume an item is allowed unless the official rules say so.
They are the reliable place to check published dates, venue or online format, deadlines, fees, eligibility, changes to rules and registration status. Social posts can be helpful reminders, but the official event page should guide your final decision.
