2024 – 2025 VEX IQ Robotics Competition: Rapid Relay
The primary objectives of the game are to Pass the Balls between Robots, score Balls through Targets, and Clear Switches. Balls are introduced to the field through the Loading Station or, during the last 15 seconds of a Match, a Rapid Load Zone. Points are awarded based on how many Goals are Scored, how many Switches have been Cleared, and how many times the Alliance successfully Passed the Ball before scoring it.
In the Teamwork Challenge, an Alliance composed of two (2) Robots works together to score as many points as possible in a sixty (60) second Match.
Teams may also compete in Robot Skills Matches, where one (1) Robot tries to score as many points as possible with a slightly different set of rules.
