Event Information
The NTX Off-Season Planning Committee is pleased to announce that the North Texas Tournament of Robots, including the Annual STEM Gals Tournament, will be returning for the 2026 off-season in McKinney, Texas!
Teams are allowed to bring their own food to the competition building. We are also working on having some options available for teams.
We would also like to encourage teams, if possible, to stay and help tear down the field. This will allow the field/support staff and volunteers to go home early.
We are excited to announce that we will be giving out Judged Awards for both STEM Gals and NTX!
We would like to invite interested adults (post-high school or equivalent, 18+, but 21+ is preferred) to volunteer as Judge Trainees!
