SuGO and WeDo

We runa and train other FTC teams how to run a SuGO workshop! What's SuGO? It's a combination of sumo wrestling and Lego robots! Here's how the sort of workshop WE run for kids goes:

" Your child will work with two different LEGO robotics kits during this one day workshop: 
1. LEGO® Education WeDo™ Robotics
For half of the day your child will work with one partner and a WeDo kit to build and program models featuring working motors and sensors. 
For a cool video showing the WeDos in action go to:

2. SuGO bots based on LEGO NXT Mindstorms
For the other half of the day teams of two will build SuGO bots and compete in a SuGO tournament.  What exactly is SuGO?  It combines the fun of NXT Mindstorms with the sport of Sumo wrestling!  Hard to imagine? Check out this video:

Please note that programming is not required in the SuGO session. "
