Dear RoboCuppers,
Back in November, when the board of trustees and I made the difficult decision to hold RoboCup 2021 remotely, we had no idea if it would work. In many of the leagues, there were neither rules nor infrastructure to support remote competitions. We knew that it was risky, but we also suspected that the RoboCup community would rise to the challenge.
Now that the event has concluded, I am pleased to report that RoboCup 2021 was an unmitigated success! Every single league held a successful competition of some sort, and we had more than 2,000 registered participants - a similar number to our usual in-person attendance.
I feel like I've said this so many times to so many people over the past few days. But I also don't think it can be said enough. So once more, Thank you! We couldn't have done it without you: the members of the event organizing committee, the executive committee, the technical committees, the organizing committees, and indeed all of the participants! No matter where your team finished in the league rankings, RoboCup couldn't have without your participation. I hope and trust that you've also gained something from the experience, both intellectually and personally.
In case you were too busy programming to catch the symposium, I encourage you now to go back to the underline site and find recordings of the events on June 23rd, 25th, and 28th: https://underline.io/events/108/schedule
I'd also like to ask all participants to fill out this short survey, which will help with our future planning:

And finally, to help us commemorate RoboCup 2021 in the future, please consider sharing with us any photos or videos that we can put into the RoboCup archive. There is one link for each league below. We request that: - they are free to use by RoboCup Federation and also partners of RoboCup on websites, press releases, etc. - you could/should send also information of the source, for giving credits (you can upload a text file with the author's names per picture, or list of pictures).
