WGM comprises three main competition categories: GM, R4M, and GM Jr. If this is your first time organizing the event, we recommend starting with simpler options—such as the GM Basic Level, R4M Basic Level, or GM Jr.—to help participating teams build confidence.

The recommended kits are primarily based on the specific competition category rather than age. For instance, for schools interested in entering the R4M competition, we recommend purchasing programming-related kits. For the recommended kits for each category. Additionally, the official WGM website announces the suggested kits for each competition year. Taking 2027 WGM as an example, you can check the link below: https://www.gigotoys.com/C8-1-en.html
