The Universiteit van Amsterdam has participated in the Rescue League since 2003, both in Germany and Italy, and participate remotely in the Rescue Middle Earth competition 2004. In 2006, the UvA participated in the new Virtual League in Bremen, where they became 3rd. Additionally they received a prize for their mapping algorithm. In Atlanta (RoboCup 2007), the team again reached the semi-finals. In Hannover (German Open 2008) the UvA reached the finals. After this date, our team joined forces with Oxford in the Amsterdam Oxford Joint Rescue Forces. With this team we were present at Suzhou (RoboCup 2008) and remotely present in Salvador (Latino American Open 2008). In the latter competition we became fully autonomous the champion. In 2009 several prizes were won at the German Open, the World Cup and the Interleague Challenge. In 2010 our team participated for the first time at the Iran Open competition, where our team received the USARsim Development prize.This year the Amsterdam Oxford Joint Rescue Forces participate both in the competitions at the Iran Open and the World Cup in Istanbul.
