For boys and girls in grades 3 through 12. Every year the EngineerGirl Essay Contest asks boys and girls to write an essay about a different subject.
This year the theme is sports. Think about a sport and the different kinds of technologies that are used in playing, scoring, or training for that sport. From something as seemingly-simple as the fabric for a uniform to high-speed cameras and biosensors, technology is essential to the way we experience sports, and engineers make all those technologies possible!
