Spots for worlds

VEX Robotics Competition Discussion

Hello everyone,

I thought it was worth asking if there is any chance that my team could qualify/get into worlds, Now that the season is begining to come to an end and the Uk nationals have ended is there any other way to get into worlds?

Im not sure how it is in the UK, but Im pretty sure that you need a high skills score to fill the remaining spots at worlds.

You can enter the waitlist. Teams are selected from the waitlist, based on the following factors:

  • The waitlist for the VEX Robotics World Championship is handled differently from other programs. In no order of precedence, the following factors are considered:
    * Season performance, including World Skills ranking
    * If a team is from an underrepresented region
    * Random selection based on teams on the waitlist

You can find the above quoted from the Qualifying Criteria for VEX Robotics Competition Events – REC Library

That quote is specifically under the VEX U/AI section. V5 and IQ are random.

The other most direct way will be via the global skills ranking - for HS, the top 10 unqualified teams will be offered a spot to attend worlds.

And this is regardless of where you come from.
