WHAT IS DRONE SOCCER?
Drone Soccer is an innovative and fast-paced sport that blends the excitement of traditional football with the cutting-edge technology of drones. In this game, teams of players control drones encased in protective cages, known as drone balls, as they manoeuvre them through the air in an attempt to score goals by flying their drones through the opponent’s goalpost. Played in a netted arena to ensure safety, Drone Soccer requires a combination of piloting skill, strategic teamwork, and quick reflexes. As a growing sport, it offers a unique blend of entertainment and technological challenge, appealing to both sports enthusiasts and tech-savvy individuals.
Each Striker must pass their drone ball through the opposing goals to score
Games can be played with teams of either 3 versus 3 or 5 versus 5 players.
Matches are structured into three sets, with each set lasting 3 minutes.
