Runners Compete for Trophies and Educational Grants in Aid, Build Self-Esteem

Colgate-Palmolive launched the first Colgate Women's Games in 1973, with 5,000 girls and young women from the New York area participating in the initial series. Today, more than 11,000 registrants from all over the East Coast - from Boston to Virginia - compete. Four weeks of preliminary and semi-final competition at Brooklyn's Pratt Institute culminate in the finals held at the world-renowned Madison Square Garden.

Competitors participate in four preliminary meets and semi-finals at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn over five weekends throughout January. In finals held in February at Madison Square Garden, finalists compete for trophies and educational grants-in-aid from Colgate-Palmolive.

Colgate Women's Games endeavors to provide athletic competition as an important ingredient in helping girls and young women develop a sense of personal destiny and self-worth, instill the importance of educational achievement and provide a training ground for those who might not otherwise participate in an organized sport.
