Dear League,After teasing this year's technical challenges in the last email, I wanted to let you all know that we've finally gotten around to finalizing and publishing the rules:https://ssl.robocup.org/robocup-2024-technical-challenges/We would like to encourage you all to participate in this year's challenges, as the 'Black and White Hulls Challenge' in particular may lead to changes in the coming years. In contrast, the 'Team vs. Team Passing Challenge' exists to incentivize teams to work on their ball conquering and pass interception skills in a more isolated environment. As these tasks are also common in regular SSL-matches, we assume investing time in this to be worthwhile.In addition, we would like to thank you all for your peer reviews. We are already in the process of reviewing all (E)TDPs, reviews and videos and will send out the preliminary qualification results before March 19.Please direct all inquiries about the qualification process to the Small Size Organizing Committee (r*******c@lists.robocup.org) and all inquiries about the technical challenges to the Small Size Technical Committee (r*******c@lists.robocup.org).Thank you!David Brand.RoboCup Small Size League | Technical Committee
