In this paper we describe an extracurricular approach to experimenting with robotics. We argue that university computer clubs are a good place for students to experience robotics outside the computer curriculum. Robot competitions are one way in which computer clubs can become involved with robotics. Some venues are more suitable than others for student university computer organizations. We describe the current state of RoboCup-inspired ELeague soccer and why it is a good match for these types of organizations.
