Age group definitions

The World Robot Olympiad has introduced new and more flexible age group definitions.

The age group definition for the Regular and Open categories was changed to allow a little more flexibility. For WRO GEN II Football there is only one age group.

1.   Elementary (Primary) School Age: Date of birth falls on or after January 01, 2000.

2.   Junior High (Middle) School Age: Date of birth falls in the period January 01, 1997 to December 31, 1999.
(If date of birth falls outside this range, it must not fall more than 6 months after this period)

3.   High (Secondary) School Age: Date of birth falls in the period January 01, 1993 to December 31, 1996.
(If date of birth falls outside this range, it must not fall more than 6 months after this period).

4.   WRO GEN II Football: Birthday falls in the period January 01, 1993 to December 31, 2001.
(If date of birth falls outside this range, it must not fall more than 6 months after this period)

5.   College & University Exhibition: Open to all post‐secondary school students.

NOTE:

Participants are not confined to school‐going students. Anyone can participate in the corresponding age groups.

College and university students may participate if the individual students fit into the HS age group bracket!

College and university students older than HS age group may participate in “College & University Exhibition” if invited by the host country.
