Mission

Beat the Streets Chicago delivers accessible, quality, transformative youth wrestling programs in Chicago. We believe wrestling is the best vehicle for becoming life champions for those who embrace it. We believe denying children with limited resources the opportunity to wrestle is an equity issue. Our organization closes the opportunity gap between wealthy suburban student athletes and children growing up in Chicago?s under-resourced neighborhoods.
