2010 - Robots play Breakaway on a 27 by 54-foot rectangular field known as the field. The field is bordered by a set of guardrails and alliance walls. There are two "bumps" in the field that divides it into three zones. During the game matches, the robots are controlled from alliance stations located outside the ends of the field. These rectangular zones consist of three team player stations that provide connectivity between the controls used by the robot operators and the arena. Goals are located at the corners of the field, and extend behind the alliance wall and adjacent to the player stations. After balls are scored, human players may pick up the balls and pass them to the center of the alliance station to be placed on the ball return rack and reenter play at midfield; teams are penalized if balls are not reentered beyond a set time limit.
