Roaming Robots 2011

Finally I can release details of what 2011 has in store so you can put the dates in your diary. There's still a lot to organise and finalise, but I am confident enough to let you know now so we can look forward to it.

Spinners.
We now have two heavyweight spinners, and two guinea pig destruct-a-bots being constructed, and will be trialled at Barnsley. If these tests go well, then we hopefully can see both Heavy and Feather weight spinners back in the arena fighting again soon, just at a reduced level!!

Arena face Lift.
Barnsley 2011 will be the dbut event of the new face lifted Roaming Robots Battle Arena.
Next week work begins on a new outer zone for the Barnsley event, in preparation of what€™s to come for the rest of the year.

2011 UK Tour Championships.
The Barnsley event will also be round 1 of the 2011 UK Tour Championship. Taking over from the old €œ Winter Tour €œ of which a certain Yellow and Green robot is currently the champion.
All events throughout 2011 will feature this championship, and be run as a league system as we have done previously, leading to a series of knock out stages at the end of the year. There has been a lot of positive feedback regarding the league system over the two years, and people haven€™t wanted it to disappear. Sign ups for the UK Tour Championship will open soon.

There are more events to add to the calendar for the tour once confirmed.

2011 Heavy Weight UK Championships. April 22 - 25th 2011.
Everybody loves a true knockout competition, well that€™s what you€™re getting for 2011. Taking place in the Premier Plaza Event space at the O2 ( Yes O2 ), we will be holding this year€™s championships.
We are still in final discussions with AEG about the actual show times, number of shows, number of days, however I can now reveal the dates so you can pencil in the 4 days for now.
The event may be launched as an initial 2 days event with options to go bigger if ticket sales allow. These are the final decisions being made soon.

This event will be the dbut of the full brand new Roaming Robots Battle Arena which goes into construction straight after Barnsley, with some new features and new show format which will hopefully add to the combat experience along the way, this event is going to be the biggest since Robot wars itself.

Signups to this event will go live very soon, once the last details are finalised. Hope we can get some of our european cousins over for the event.


Stay tuned for lots more information, including competition structure, prize money, hotel provisions for teams, celebrity presenter, & possibility of it being filmed for a TV channel.

Looking forward to 2011.
