Upward is a national program that teaches character, self-esteem, biblical lessons, sportsmanship, teamwork, and the fundamentals of the game. Nationally, there are over 400,000 kids involved in Upward leagues. In every Upward league, every child is a winner. All participants have equal playing time and teams are divided equally to maximize every child’s opportunity to learn and thrive in soccer, basketball or cheerleading.  For more information about Upward visit www.upward.org.
