    Please direct all general registration questions and inquiries via email to April.RoboCup@gmail.com.

    Overview of the Registration Process

    Only qualified teams can register! Please wait until your league qualifies the teams and your team will be available in RegOnline. There is a registration code necessary which we will send to the team leaders of the qualified teams.

    Registration proceeds separately for each qualified team and for the team leader and team members. When registering a team, you need to include the information for a "point of contact" for the team. Please note, though, that the person serving as point of contact is not registered at that time, but only the team is registered. In addition to registering your team, all team leaders and team members need to register as Faculty/Staff or Student participants. Team members can only register after their team registration is complete.

    Registrations are only complete when payment is received.

    Credit card payments are immediately validated.

    We strongly recommend payment by credit card.

    The other available method of payment takes time. No registration is considered complete until full payment is received.

    The participants from the countries requiring visas will need an invitation letter. Also please visit the following tab for the latest information.

    The invitation letter will be sent by email to the participants at our very earliest convenience after the registration is complete. Please wait patiently for the payment to be complete. If you still have questions, please email to visa@robocup2016.org.

    We have MAJOR (previously called Senior) leagues and JUNIOR leagues. All fees are in US Dollars (USD).

    Registration fees, Major leagues

    Qualified teams are organized by league. No Major team can register after May 31, 2016.

    • Junior teams must have at least two team members in order to register. Junior teams must consist of minimum of two team members.
    • We strongly recommend teams to register all team students at once. The system does not allow you to add only one team student to your existing registration. Adding more team student(s) later without two extra students will not be possible
    • Parents accompanying their children, who want to visit the site only during hours for public access and only in areas open to the public, do not need to register.
