FAQ

Q1. Is there a fee to participate in the UUR program?

Yes, there is a $10 per team fee to compete in the annual competition. This is part of the registration process in January.

Q2. How can I get an ROV kit for my team?

ROV kits are provided by UUR to teams who want to participate in the competition, but UUR only has a limited number of kits to give out. They are given out on a first come, first served basis.

Q3. How do I register?

We will send out a registration link in January. At that time, you will pay the $10 per team competition fee. Please submit team names at that time.

Q4. What is the participant age group?

The UUR program is primarly for middle school-aged students, between 6th and 9th grade. However, we have had teams as young as 2nd grade participate in the past.

Q5. Do you provide batteries for the ROVs?

We provide batteries for the competition day. Schools can also purchse their own for testing. We recommend using a 12V 7-amp rechargeable lead acid battery.

Q6. Do you have a pool we can practice in?

UUR hosts an annual testing day at BYU a few weeks before the competition. Look on our calendar for more information on that. Otherwise no, participants are responsible for finding their own practice pools. An inexpensive alternative to practicing in a pool is buying a watering trough or small inflatable pool. We also recommend reaching out to school or community pools and asking if they’d allow practice in their facilities.

Q7. When is the annual competition?

In March. You can find all of the information (exact date, times, etc.) about the competition here.

Q8. How long is the program?

We kickoff the program each fall, typically in October. Students then have five months to build their ROVs before the competition in March.

Q9. How do I get involved?

To get involved, please contact us at utahrov@gmail.com.

Q11. Are there instructional resources available to participants?

Yes, we have many helpful resources on our website, including building instructions. xx. MATE and Seapearch also have great resources for building ROVs.
