The 1995 National Championship was the second and final official competition of the 1995 FIRST Robotics Competition season. The championship took place at the American Gardens Theatre at the EPCOT Center at Walt Disney World from March 30th to April 1st, 1995. Normal seating in front of the pavillion as well as folding chairs made up the stands for the event, and the pit area was in a tent outside of the nearby Liberty Theatre. Two fields were set up on the stage of the American Gardens Theatre and matches would be played back and forth between the two fields to cut down on match turnaround time.

The period team list does not indicate that frc90, frc131, frc157, frc121, or frc173 attended the the 1995 National Championship, although they are present in the playoff bracket and photographs of several of these teams at the 1995 National Competition exist.
