An eventful start to the weekend for hundreds of high school students.

Friday, at the Von Braun Center, robotics teams from across the country participated in the First Robotics Competition Rocket City Regional.
At least 1,300 students on 50 teams competed in a game called “First Steamworks.”
The teams earned points when their robots picked up and delivered balls of “Fuel” into what’s called a boiler.

“This competition is a lot of real world problem-solving. So it gives you a lot of insight about how to approach a problem, how to work together with your teammates, ” said Matin Mirramezani, a senior at Grissom High School.

This is the second year Huntsville has hosted the robotics competition. See the event schedule here.

Two international teams were also featured in the competition, a team from Canada and a team from the Dominican Republic.

NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center is a supporter of the “Rocket City Regional.”
