Internet, referee meeting and the first test game

Every year, the Internet connection has its difficulties - almost too obvious. Therefore, most of the day the network was broken. However, we still made good use of the day: we fixed a few outstanding bugs, exchanged news and discussed results with other teams.

The referee meeting took one and a half hour and was about explaining new rules to all teams. This year, both goals are yellow instead one blue and one yellow goal, which dramatically increases the game difficulty for each team. Our Naos need to keep track by them selves what their own part of the field is.

This evening, we also had our first test game against our friends from Berlin. We scored four goals and won 4:0.

Let's see what tomorrow brings.
