- **Event Description**: Oxfordshire Robot Combat Society (ORCS) presents ORCS12!

Spectators, visitors, rookies welcome 🙂

This is the second event in the 2026 league! Your best 3 of 4 events counts.

We return once again to our fantastic hosts The Tap Social Movement in Oxford for more Antweight mayhem! As a reminder for the style of event we are striving for: it's meant to be casual and competitive in equal measure, with the emphasis on stick time. Good sportsmanship is valued. We are rookie-friendly and actively encourage new entrants.

*Details*:
ENTRY FEE IS CHANGING slightly: £5 per ROBOT now. This is to cover some new investments which will enhance your experience and your safety, as well as standard arena maintenance and equipment expenses. For clarity: 100% of entry fees go toward the running of the event.

Payable on sign-up please :)

We know budget is always a concern - but we must ask you to be generous to our hosts Tap Social and please refrain from eating your own food/drink on site (water and snacks are fine) if you are able to. The reason we're able to offer the event at only £5 per robot is because Tap Social don't charge us for the venue which is very generous of them - but it is with the expectation of being able to supply food and drink to the good people. Please thank them with your coin if you are able and thank you for your understanding.

*The League* (Of Extraordinary Robots)
