2024-25 WVSSAC Robotics State Championship

Join us for the WVSSAC Robotics State Championship, held Wednesday, December 18, 2024 at Herbert Hoover High School!

Eligibility

Any WVSSAC-affiliated high school may participate. There is no registration fee, and teams do not need to be registered for the 2024-25 V5RC season to participate. Only one team from each school may attend. If your school has been fielding multiple V5RC teams during the RECF season, you can combine all your school's students and robots into a single WVSSAC Robotics team.
