as a ping-pong table. One half is black and the other is white. Each robot tries to catch the " football" and push it
into the goal. The robot with more goals won.
     Gao Linge,a boy from Guangming Middle School, helped make one of the robots for the match.

Ying Xuehai, a 12-year-old student from Gao's school,also made a robot. His robot played against Gao's.The match
decided who would go to the final game. Ying lost the game. So he gave many of his robot's parts to Gao.
