Local Groups, Clubs, and Organizations

Here is a partial list of robot combat clubs, organizations, groups and individuals putting on events worldwide. Most hold multiple events each year. In all cases they should be thanked! If you are planning on competing, check with each event's organizer for the specific rules they will use.

To find upcoming events near you, see Events and the event map on RobotCombatEvents.com. UK and European events are listed on the Bristol Bot Builders events listing. Many universities also run combat robotics clubs and campus events; see Combat Robotics in Schools and Universities. Online and regional discussion groups are listed on RobotCommunity.
