The Format.

We will be running 3 shows per day.

10am - 12pm
1pm - 3pm
4pm - 6pm

Timing will be tight, and if you are not ready for your fight, there will be no excuses. We will be running the same rule as in the feather weight UK champs, where we will be asking for 1 designated driver per robot throughout the competition.

How does it work ?

10 seeds in 10 pods, each robot will fight each other. At the end of day 1 we will end up with 10 pod winners. In the event of equal points, the judges notes will be used to find a winner, ( ie more convincing win / knock out time etc... )

The 2nd place losers will then be put into two 5 way looser melee€™s. 1 robot from each will go through.

6 x 1 v 1 second round fights giving 6 winners

2 x 3 way losers melees with 1 winner from each going through.

4 x 1 v 1 quarter finals.

2 x 1 v 1 semi finals

1 x 1 v 1 Final

We will also be running a 6 robot annihilator robots will be chosen / asked from the pod 1st round losers.

Ok that€™s it for now.... enjoy !!!
