<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">RoboParty is an educational robotics event,
where youngsters learn hands-on how to build a mobile and autonomous robot from
scratch (electronics, mechanics, programming), guided by professionals, in a relaxed
environment with ludic/sports activities. In the end, the participants keep the
robot for themselves to continue their learning process and for participating in
robotics events, like RoboCup or other national/regional competitions.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"><br></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">The Trustees of the RoboCup Federation
