The 2020 RoboCup competition in France has officially been postponed until next year due to the covid-19 pandemic. However, our team is still working hard to design a new robot and upgrade our exisiting robot, so that we can participate in future competitions. Although we can't work physically on the robot, we are doing what we can online such as creating new code and a 3D model of the new robot.

to when we got Bez standing up for the first time this year! :)
