> Dear Trustees and Execs,
> 
> Please consider nominating a female student from your teams for the Silvia Coradeschi RoboCup Award. I don't think that we got nominations, and I am sure that there are well-deserving female students in our community. The nomination is very simple - just an email with the reason (research and RoboCup leadership) of your nomination.

>> Prof. Silvia Coradeschi (d. Feb 5, 2014) was a founding trustee of RoboCup and an early visionary in the RoboCup initiative. She served as General Chair of RoboCup 1999 in Stockholm, Sweden, was a frequent competition participant, and was an examplar of the RoboCup ideal of engaging in cutting edge AI and Robotics research.
>> 
>> To honor her memory, the RoboCup Federation created "The             Silvia Coradeschi RoboCup Award" in 2014 for a young female             RoboCup student, with distinguishing research. See past awardees at robocup.org.
>> 
>> We are now calling for candidates to the 2015 Award.
>> 
>> The award recipient, to be named at the RoboCup 2015 banquet will receive:
>>    - a certificate
>>    - reimbursement for the RoboCup 2015 registration fee
>>    - free registration at one (any) future international RoboCup
>>    - a $500 honorarium
>> 
>> Eligible candidates are female graduate students who have not yet earned a Ph.D. and who are registered for RoboCup 2015.
>> 
>> The two criteria are:
>> 
>> 1) Distinguishing research as evidenced by, for example, refereed publications.
>> 
>> 2) RoboCup leadership, either within a team, and/or in the broad RoboCup community.
>> 
>> To nominate a female student, the student's professor should send a nominating email to April Foster, april.robocup at gmail.com, by June 30th, 2015.  The email must address both of the award criteria.
>> 
>> The nominating professor should also solicit at least one and not more than two supporting emails to be sent by RoboCup community members from a different team, addressing one or both of the award criteria. The supporting emails are also to be sent to April Foster, april.robocup at gmail.com.
