RoboCup SPL League

Excited to discuss the Future of RoboCup during this year's RoboCup symposium.

This year, our SPL league played three friendly matches vs. Humanoid league robots -- 2 on our fields and 1 on a Humanoid field. B-Human adapted to the different field and a different ball to win both of their matches with a score of 6:0 after just the first half!

Congratulations to RoboEireann on an excellent tournament! The Ireland-based team promoted from the development "Challenge Shield" league to the "Champions Cup" this year, finished 4th in the seeding round, and won the third-place match to finish third in the tournament!

Tune in now to the second half of the Champions Cup Third Place match between RoboEireann and HULKs: youtube.com/watch?v=_3nwsoTc…

This year, the Challenge Shield completed a full round-robin seeding round before moving into a double-elimination tournament to determine a winner. Results of the seeding round: #1 SABANA Herons #2 WisTex United #3 R-ZWEI Kickers #4 Naova #5 RedBackBots #6 Dutch Nao Team

Challenge Shield Round 2 SABANA Herons 9:0 RedBackBots @unisabana takes a dominating lead in the Challenge Shield standings with another big victory over another solid opponent.

Challenge Shield Round 2 WisTex United 6:0 Naova WisTex claimed its second victory in two matches with a resounding performance via Naova. Despite the result, the well-organized Naova defense put up a good fight, which should serve them well later in the tournament.

Champions Cup Round 2 B-Human 5:0 RoboEireann @pennybhuman continues their dominance in the SPL league with a solid victory over a scrappy RoboEireann team that wouldn't go down without a fight!

Champions Cup Round 1 Nao Devils 0:7 @Team_HULKs A big victory for the HULKs in their opening match to make a statement! But don't count the tough-defending Nao Devils out of future matches!

Champions Cup Round 1 RoboEireann 2:1 rUNSWift A late comeback from @unsw_ai fell just short as newly-promoted RoboEireann team wins their first match in the Champions Cup!
