Re: Girls on Teams
Out of about 25 kids on our team, 3 of them are girls. I personally am the oldest and I've been in mechanical all my FIRST life, and this year I'm the coach for drive team. The two other girls just joined this year, one being a sophomore and the other is a freshman. They aren't really into anything other than web as of lately, and they kind of stick together. What I think is really important to know about girls on the teams is that they tend to either be reallly dedicated (5-6 days a week) or casually interested. I really don't think that it has to do with girls being steered away from more hands-on things, but their interests usually lie elsewhere. I think that as much as I enjoy mechanical I just don't have a natural knack for it like the guys do, however I have experiences that say that girls are much more moldable and flexible than the stubborn boys!
