What is the ration of boys to girls on your robotics team?

FIRST General Forum
#70

~20 guys and 2 girls on the official team. The lowest it’s ever been :frowning:

#71

We have nine girls on the team, making up about a quarter of the entire team. Most are working in manufacturing and electronics and programming, while some lead our Publicity, Outreach, and Promotions team.

#72

we have one girl on our team and she is always going to the basketball games instead of robotics

#73

we have no girls what so ever but we are looking to recruit girls.

#74

100% girls, and they are loving every minute of it.

#75

Well, our shopping subteam is 100% girls… other than that, we don’t let girls do stuff.

#76

Just a little bit more til you surpass amateurrobotguy for the lowest rep on the forum. I think this post might put you over the top (or bottom).
All the same aren’t there better things to strive for in FIRST than this?

#77

we have alot of girls on the team

#78

Team 319 is all boys… sometimes it gets pretty crazy in the shop

#79

It is the exact opposite for us. We keep losing the participation of girls. We have one girl leftand she is leaving this year so next year I don’t think we will have any.

#80

our team has always had about 2 more girls than boys, and our team has never been over about 20-23 kids…i guess the girls are more interested in it at our school

#81

we have an all girls team :cool:

#82

actually, there are 5 girls on our team. count 'em. :slight_smile:

#83

This post in particular, sadly enough, hasn’t garnered any yet =/
I guess there are more noble goals, but at least I have a goal.

#84

But there is so much more to FIRST than this.
What is there to gain from doing this?
It’s just trolling.
You can do that on any messageboard and get the same empty calories from doing it. You been around and you know FIRST offers better opportunites than that, man. You could be so much more. Why waste it?

#85

Our team is 10 boys students to 7 girls. But both the Business and Engineering leaders are girls. :cool:

#86

we have 2 girls on our team well one deffinent and one maybe

#87

For the last three years our ratio has been right at 1:6 girls to boys. We typically start the year at about 50:50 but the girls just don’t stick.

#88

3 guys + 1 guy who graduated (mentor)
1 girl
