Upward is an organization that offers sport leagues for children and youth.
They have basketball, soccer, flag football, and cheerleading sports leagues.
Our church will be offering basketball and cheerleading in our first season.

The great thing about Upward leagues is that they are ministry focused.

All coaches lead their team in devotions each week. The focus is on salvation, character, and self-esteem.
Also the emphasis is on learning the fundamentals of each sport and having fun. The teams are divided evenly and everyone gets to play.

Upward is great opportunity for your church to reach out to your community.
Check it out!
