RoboCup Junior Queensland Sumo Competition

RCJQ Annual Sumo Competition

About the Competition

Robot-sumo is an exciting robotics competition inspired by traditional sumo wrestling. In this event, two robots engage in a head-to-head battle aiming to push each other out of a circular arena. It’s a test of strength, strategy, and engineering skills—no weapons, just pushing power!

Divisions

The QLD Sumo Challenge has four divisions: Primary, Secondary, Intermediate, and Open. Please refer to the official rules for eligibility and build requirements for your division

Competition Spirit

RoboCup Junior events emphasize learning, collaboration, and sportsmanship. We encourage participants to engage with peers, ask questions, and share technological insights, contributing to an enriching experience for all involved. The guiding principle remains, “It’s not whether you win or lose, but how much you learn that counts.”

Teams must stay informed of any local rule variations announced prior to the event through official emails or the RoboCup Junior Queensland webpage. For detailed rules and further information, please refer to the General Rules.

Join us for an engaging robotics competition that celebrates innovation, collaboration, and technological excellence!
