This paper briefly presents the research performed in the context of FC Portugal project concerning coordination methodologies applied to robotic soccer. FC Portugal’s research has been integrated in several teams that have participated with considerable success in distinct RoboCup leagues and competitions. The paper includes a brief description of the main RoboCup competitions in which FC Portugal (and associated teams) has participated with focus in the simulation leagues and related challenges. It also presents a complete state of the art concerning coordination methodologies applied to robotic soccer followed by FC Portugal main contributions on this area. The team contributions include methodologies for strategic reasoning, coaching, strategic positioning, dynamic role exchange and flexible setplay definition and execution. These methodologies compose a complete coordination framework that enable a robotic team to play soccer or execute similar tasks.
