30th April/1st May - XFM FW Challenge, Cambridge

XFM Featherweight Series - Cambridgeshire

The first May bank holiday weekend sees the kick-off of the XFM Featherweight Challenge, a series of featherweight/educational shows touring around with this first date hosted in the center of Cambridge, the science and technology capital of the UK !

Each show itself is a self contained event for the audience attending and will feature the new XFM Featherweight arena - fully polycarbed to 4m in height Battlebox style, and packed with effects this arena has been designed from the ground up to show the featherweight class at its best - and yes you can throw people OOTA !

This series of events is fully sponsored and underwritten, meaning that each event will carry a £250 first prize - as well as a prize for the overall series winner with no reliance on an attending audience (though therell be one there of course!) - there will also be 2nd and 3rd prizes as well as trophies ! Food will be provided for attending teams, as will discounted accomodation and an organised Sat night social.

Further public and Roboteer information will be posted over the coming weeks, but we wanted to let the roboteers know about this series of events as soon as we were in a position to confidently announce it.

If youre interested in coming, please feel free to post in the thread below, and well update you with news as it comes.
