100 academic scholarships worth $2,000, $1,000, and $500 for first,
second, and third place, respectively. These scholarships are
awarded by title sponsor, Colgate-Palmolive.
Colgate Women’s Games helps girls and women advance their
brighter, healthier futures by encouraging them to be active on the
track, in the classroom and beyond. By empowering competitors to
prioritize athletics and education, Colgate Women’s Games has
supported countless girls and women with educational scholarships
to help pay for tuition thanks to the generous support of title
sponsor Colgate-Palmolive.

returning to the indoor track and field season and could not be
more excited to officially open registration for the 49th Season,”
said Cheryl Toussaint, world-class track champion and Meet
Director, Colgate Women’s Games. “Year after year, I have witnessed
how Colgate Women’s Games continues to make a difference in the
lives of young athletes by teaching lessons about hard work,
perseverance, productivity, and community – and by investing in
them so they may pursue a quality education. I have benefitted as a
former competitor myself. I’m looking forward to welcoming all
returning athletes, new athletes, and their families, friends,
coaches and fans back to the track this winter.”
