"Upward Sports" is a fun, reliable, passionate, and encouraging, sports experience for boys and girls, in Kindergarten through 6th grade. "Upward" provides first-class, organized, detailed, sports programming in basketball and cheerleading. Our current season includes the months of December through February. Unique aspects of "Upward" include an Evaluation Placement System which fosters equality of competition between teams, as well as a Substitution System, which allows for equal playing time amongst all participants. Through "Upward," children are exposed to quality coaching and sport development. "Upward" emphasizes character and integrity instead of a "win-at-all-costs" mentality, which may often be found in today's sports world.
Mission Statement
To introduce children to Jesus Christ by creating opportunities to serve through sports.
Values
The Expectation of God-Moments We believe that God is at work all around us. Ephesians 2:10 - For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.
The Life of Integrity We believe that how we live is more important than what we say. Galatians 2:20 - I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.
The Discipline of Excellence We believe in serving that exceeds expectations. Colossians 3:17 - And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.
The Priority of Children We believe that Every Child Is A Winner. Matthew 18:14 - In the same way your Father in heaven is not willing that any of these little ones should be lost.
