General Info

Welcome to the VEX V5 Robotics Competition™ (Blended Division)

Level Up™ Tournament @ The Royal Adelaide Show

Registration open - Please add teams for this competition using the waitlist on the lefthand side. For all other Royal Show tournaments register as normal.

This is a perfomance based competition (non-judged).
Supervising teachers and competitors (students) receive complimentary entry into the Show Grounds with your team entry
Please check the age requirements for each division your team competes in. For a blended competition both divisions can compete together:

Competition Program (and Level) Student Eligibility Team Size VEX V5 (Middle School) 15 years old or younger 1+ VEX V5 (High School) 19 years old or younger.
Not graduated from secondary school. 1+

A student's age for eligibility is their age on June 1 of the year the season ends. For example, for this 2026–2027 season, eligibility is based on the student's age on June 1, 2027.
If any team member is in the older "bracket" that whole team must play in that division. For example a team may be comprised of Year 6 and Year 8 students however would play in the Middle School division.

For schools please be aware of the transport and travel tab that will appear on this page for important drop off and pick up information.

Please note that all V5 middle school teams will be given registration preference first. All coaches need to add teams into waitlist (left handside menu).

We will fill up V5 High School teams in this order for this blended competition:

• V5 High School teams who have not competed this season AND not registered for the Friday Royal Show Event
• Any remaining V5 High School teams that wish to compete (if we are not full your V5 team may end up having the opportunity to play both Thursday and Friday)

The Design and Technology Teachers Association of SA is hosting this event and all invoices will be sent to schools via office@datta.sa.edu.au. This may occur one week post event due to administration processes.
