APPLY TO PLAY

This event is a BIG DEAL.

​

Not only is it an all girls drive team event, it's also going to have an amazing showcase featuring hands on demonstrations, quick builds, representatives from engineering programs at leading colleges and universities, tons of STEM programs and non-profits, and a bunch of other really exciting stuff. You're going to want to get in on this.

​

Your drive team will need to be ALL GIRLS. Yes, guys can come along for support, but girls need to be the ones in the pit, working on the bot. Worried that your team won't have enough girls? Grab a few friends from another team, cause team merging IS ALLOWED. 2019 graduates can play too!

The cost of this event is $200. Check out the rest of our FAQ HERE.

Why an all girls event?

Because WHY NOT?

Girls are smart, fierce, amazing creatures with hearts and minds the size of the galaxy. We want to provide girls with the opportunity to rise up and take charge of STEAM opportunities. Gender gap? WHAT gender gap! The Goon Squad has made it our mission to work really hard to close it, starting right here in Woodhaven.
