General Info

Since TechPoint Youth and Group 1001 joined forces, over 10,000 students have joined robotics teams across Indiana. The Group 1001 Girl Powered Skills Workshop will help girls new to robotics prepare for competition while providing continued mentorship for experienced participants. We’re looking for teams whose members are more than 50% girls, and boys are welcome to participate!

Students will engage in practice sessions to improve their competition skills and attend a panel offering guidance and encouragement.

Parents and guardians new to robotics can join our Parent Power Panel for tips on supporting their students and preparing for the Indiana VEX Robotics State Championship at Lucas Oil Stadium!
