U19 Drone Soccer at Baylor

March 5, 2025

U.S. Drone Soccer is an aviation workforce development program. Its mission is to help schools create accessible pathways for students to enter high-demand, high-paying aerospace careers. DS U19 Youth programs gamify engineering problem solving and immerse students in the language and culture of aviation. Drone soccer can be implemented as a classroom enrichment or an after-school competitive club, as students build, program, innovate, and learn to fly as a team. Full-contact gameplay takes place inside a netted arena that fits in any school.

The aims of the U.S drone soccer are:

Give access to unparalleled opportunities in the world of aviation and engineering.
To democratize aerospace education.
To cultivate critical thinking and engineering problem-solving skills.
Instill trust, resilience, and a sense of wonder in students.

AVIA Lab at Baylor University will participate in U.S drone soccer and start the journey.
