The Teeny-Tiniest Footballers in the World

By: Daryl | July 7th, 2007

Teeny Tiny SWPBob has already clued us in to the 2007 RoboCup that’s happening in Atlanta, Georgia right now. And while the images in your head of big clumsy metal-men kicking balls with straight legs are somewhat accurate, there’s also a much much smaller player being developed. The smallest in the world.

By way of comparison, Shaun Wright-Phillips is small. No doubt about it, he’s very small. But he is nowhere near to being the smallest footballer in the world because that honour goes to The Whirling Dervish and those like him. Competing in the Nano Cup section of the RoboCup, the teeny tiny robot is just one sixth the size of an amoeba. So TWD is very unlikely to be signed as a target man for a Premiership club any time soon, but then neither is SWP.
