The three teams were:

Team 1: Ashton Clues and Liam Brown

Team 2: Jules Schirripa

Team 3: Maddie Clues, Tamsyn Doyle and Kelsey Doyle.

The teams played 10 qualifying rounds with the best of three matches for each round. Team 2 and 3 moved to the finals with team 3 winning all of their 10 rounds.

The girls played through the finals enthusiastically and won the overall champions for the day. Many coming home with medallions, a trophy and a full EV3 lego kit as prizes. They girls also won the ‘Most Gracious Team’ award due to their support for other teams and their enthusiasm. All three teams played with amazing sportsmanship, sometimes allowing opponents several chances to restart if they had robotic problems.

This now bring the sumo competition to an end for 2018. We have had a wonderful year with unforgettable experiences in the tournaments we have taken part in. The students are now getting robots ready for an even better year in 2019.
