Introducing children to Jesus Christ by creating opportunities to serve through sports

 
We had a GREAT first season, thanks to all Kids, their Parents, and all the people who assisted this year to make Upward a great success. We saw several children make a profession of Faith! Who could ask for a better season!

We look forward to another great season next time!

UPWARD PROMOTES CHARACTER AND SELF-ESTEEM IN EVERY CHILD BY:

Providing an evaluation system that promotes equal teams and opportunities
Establishing a one-hour practice and game each week
Implementing a substitution system for each team, allowing every child equal playing time
