The SA BEST (Boosting Engineering, Science, and Technology)
competition is a contest held annually to inspire and interest students in the fields of science and
engineering. With guidance from adult mentors, local teams of students design and build a remote
controlled machine to accomplish a specific task. The students are given a
box of raw materials from which to build the machine and 6 weeks to design and
construct it. The task of the robot is kept secret until Kick-off Day, when
all the teams are told what the robot is required to do. On Competition Day, all schools will compete
head-on with each other in a thrilling science-fair-turned-sports-event.
Several teams advance to the regional Texas Best
competition and
compete with the BEST robots from other areas. More information on the BEST
concept is available.
