Girls on the Run Spring 2025

Lottery Registration: Each GOTR team may have 8 - 15 participants. If more girls sign up at a site than there is space available, we use an online lottery system to randomly select participants for the team. This helps us to ensure a fair and equal registration process for all.

• We recommend using a laptop or desktop computer if possible when completing the online registration. Smart phones and tablets often work, but sometimes have issues.
• Paper registration forms are available in English and Spanish by contacting your school's GOTR Site Liaison or the GOTR office.
• Please only register your girl for a team if she attends the host school as a student. If your girl does not attend the host school, please contact the school's GOTR Site Liaison and/or the GOTR office (as approval from the school is required). 
• Girls on the Run is for every girl! Financial assistance is available and easy to request during the registration process.
• You should receive an email confirmation from “notify@pinwheelmail.com” immediately after submitting your participant’s online registration. If you do not receive a confirmation email, check your junk email folder and/or call our office at 269-532-1220.
• This confirmation email will indicate your participant's status as "Lottery" and does not guarantee a spot in the program. This email simply confirms that your girl’s lottery registration has been received.

Girl Placement Week: December 2 - 6

• All families will receive an update regarding their girl's registration status via email. 

·       If your girl is selected in the lottery, you will receive an automated email officially registering her for the program. This email will include additional information about next steps to prepare for the GOTR season.

o   If your participant's team does not have the required coaches, this information will be shared in your placement email. Coach vacancies must be filled prior to the start of the season in order for the team to run for the season.

o   If a team does not have enough girls to meet the team size minimum, we will try to recruit additional girls during late registration. If a team is unable to meet the team size minimum before the start of the season, we will notify you via email. 

·       If your girl is not selected in the lottery, you will be notified via personal email.

·       A full refund of any amount paid will be issued if a girl is not placed on a team due to the lottery, not having enough participants, or lack of volunteer coaches.

If you have not received an email by end of day on December 6th, check your junk email folder and/or call our office at 269-532-1220.

Financial assistance is available. We simply ask families to contribute honestly what they are able toward the program fee.
