Winter Academy Comes to a Close and Spring Academy is on the Horizon

Posted: March 16, 2021

The Winter Academy, serving over 250 boys and girls at 11 programs over the course of six weeks, came to a close on Thursday, March 11th.

Participants were able to meet for outdoor, socially-distanced workouts with teammates, completing a series of weekly challenges along the way in a friendly competition. Points were measured by attendance of outdoor workouts and/or team Zoom meetings, weekly workout challenges, chess tournament results, and completing workbook activities.

The Winter Academy winners were:

Overall Points

California Golden Bears – Topanga, Antelope Valley, Irving

Bonus Points

Powerful Silver Foxes – Downtown Academy, Westside Wrestling, Burbank

The program and individual winners for the team race, chess tournament, workbook and attendance stars were announced during the Winter Academy Finale on Zoom, where over 120 students and coaches partook in one last showdown on Kahoot.

Over the next few months, Beat the Streets Los Angeles will prepare for the kick-off of the Spring Academy, set to begin on Monday, April 12th. Students who wish to register to continue the fun can do so here.
