G-Force Robotics is the flagship program of the Johnston County STEM Girls Initiative 501c3 Corp. based in Clayton, N.C. This FIRST Robotics Competition team enters its second season in 2023-2024 as the 3rd all-girl FRC team in North Carolina. The team is comprised of young women in grades 9 through 12 from communities and schools across Wake and Johnston Counties. The team seeks to encourage girls’ interest in STEM fields while also developing skills in business, marketing and leadership.
G-Force Robotics' goal is to provide young women with a safe space to explore their talents, creativity and interests while learning hands-on skills to design industrial-sized robots for global competition. We invite you to learn more about our team, our outreach efforts and the FIRST community through exploring our website and reaching out with any questions.
