The Colgate Women's Games is the nation's largest amateur track series open to all girls from elementary school through college. Held at Brooklyn's Pratt Institute, competitors participate in preliminary meets and semi-finals over five weekends throughout January. Finalists compete for trophies and educational grants-in-aid from Colgate-Palmolive Company at Madison Square Garden on February 2nd at 11:00am.
The goal of the event is to provide an athletic competition that helps the participating young girls and women develop a strong sense of personal achievement, self-esteem, instill the importance of education and provide a training ground for those who might not otherwise participate in an organized sport.
Tickets to the February 2 Madison Square Garden Finals are free to the general public. Ticket requests should include the number of tickets needed and a complete address where tickets should be mailed. Please include apartment numbers and zip codes.
Note: To expedite ticket requests made by mail, a self-addressed, postage-paid return envelope should be included in the envelope with request.
