All teachers are invited to join The Academy’s softball team, “The Detentions.”

The team will play—and cheerfully demolish—teams from New York institutions. In the past, they have played against BAM, Carnegie Hall, MoMA, and the New York Public Library, among many others.

All experience levels are welcome, the goal is fun. Go, teachers! Play ball!

League fees are $40 for the season and include 11+ games, shirt & hat, and end-of-season celebration ($160 value).

Season to start the week of 5/13! Games take place weeknights and start at 6 p.m. or 7 p.m.

The Coaches

Back for another season, the hard-hitting trio will lead The Detentions to more glorious wins!!
