THE NEXT GENERATION OF
DRONE SOCCER
Hook students with exciting robotics competitions and retain them in aviation skills pathways. CrewConcept provides a gamified learning system that builds confidence from classrooms to careers.
DRONE SOCCER ACADEMY
Competitive Drone Teams
More than a robotics competition, we teach aviation skills with hands-on camps and programs for all ages. Teams of 5-10 pilots work together to build, program, fly, and repair aircraft while learning leadership, communication, and engineering problem solving.
Global Student Robotics
Invented in South Korea, Drone Soccer has spread internationally as an amateur drone sport. The Drone Soccer Academy provides educational camps and STEM/CTE curriculum to prepare students for aviation careers and the Academic Drone Soccer World Cup & Career Fair.
How To Play Drone Soccer
Drone Soccer is similar to Quidditch except pilots operate remote-controlled aircraft. The drones are protected by spherical cages that allow them to collide in the air. As the only full-contact flying sport, competitions are fast-paced and spectator friendly!
The game is played 5v5 by pilots who stand outside a netted arena. One "Striker" aircraft on each team is marked with flags and is able to score by flying through the opposing goal, and the other pilots attempt to block the opposing Striker from scoring. This sport emphasizes not only pilot but also teamwork, strategy, and technical knowledge as they repair their aircraft under pressure.
Each Drone Soccer Match is played in three-minute Sets with short repair intervals in between. The team with the most goals in three-minutes wins that Set, with the Match decided by best out of three. In the event of a tied Match the winner is decided by sudden death overtime!
