Welcome to RoboCup Junior Victoria. In 2013 we will be conducting regional compettions as well as the State Finals. Details of all competitions and workshops will be added here once dates and venues have been confirmed.

We aim to make this competition as much fun as possible for all students involved, and we are grateful for the support of interested parents and teachers. From 2013 onwards, all teams entered into Victorian events are limited to a maximum of 5 students. Schools may enter as many teams as they wish in each event.

If you would like to volunteer or would like to enter this year's competition and don’t know where to start we would appreciate hearing from you.
