News & General Information
Competition Qualification
All RoboCup Junior Victoria (RCJV) competitions (including the Australian Open National Competition) are open entry, meaning any teams can enter any and all competitions, without prior experience or finals placement in a previous competition. Whilst we do strongly encourage teams to attend Regional Competitions to gain experience, this is in no way required for entry into the State and/or National Competition.
Entry Volume Management
Challenges/Divisions listed for all competitions will run subject to a minimum of five entries in that challenge/division. In the event of less than five entries, or for other operational and/or management reasons, divisions may be merged and combined. Conversely, in the event there are too many entries for a particular competition, or challenge/division at a competition (as dictated by event, challenge/division and/or venue capacity and/or health and saftey requirements), organisations with the most entries may be asked to select their teams best prepared for competition to attend the event. This is most likely to occur at the State Competition. Mentors from any organisations affected will be contacted after close of entries.
Entry Fees
Entry fee amounts for each competition are stated below. Due to the continued growth of RoboCup Junior (Australia) Inc., from 2018, GST is payable on entry fees and invoices will be reflective of this. As most organisations, including Schools, can claim back GST paid on goods and services, this change will have zero net effect on most participants.
Rule Modifications
Please see the RCJV Soccer and RCJV Rescue pages (links to the left) for important information relevant to Regional and State Competitions in Victoria. The information on these pages does not apply to the Australian Open National Competition.
Miscellaneous
Important documents including the mandatory media release deed and mentor declaration can be found at the bottom of this page. Mentors are reminded that it is their responsibility to ensure the saftey of their students, themselves, anybody associated with them and any associated property at any and all events (including but not limited to competitions and workshops) and complete/implement any risk assessments or child safe policies that might be required.
