Miss fighting robots? Well, nows your chance to compete and come out with a hefty bankroll!
Combat Robots return to San Francisco this fall for the inaugural ComBots Cup €†a 220 pound Heavyweight Open, with the first place winner taking home TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS (‚8,100 / £5,500 / AU$ 13,000) and the hundred-pound ComBots Cup (which will make the Stanley Cup look like a dixie cup.) If you€™ve already got a heavyweight robot or have been meaning to build one, now€™s your chance to go for the top money!
The event is not limited to Heavyweights - we are also doing a SuperHeavy (340 lbs) and MiddleWeight (120 lbs) event (although the payout wont be as large.) So if youve got a bot, bring it! Were even doing a Robo-One event for those with Androids.
ComBots (organizer of ROBOlympics/RoboGames and the RFL National Championships) will host the event in San Francisco at Fort Mason on Sat-Sun, November 12-13th. I really hope that you can make it for this event - to keep the sport growing, we need to have as many contestants show up as possible! Lets show the world that this sport is alive and thriving!

We also desperately need sponsors for this event. As little as $100 or as much as $50,000 - well take it! If you or anyone you know can help, please contact me or download a sponsorship kit here:
