Sports | Upward Basketball & Cheer

Young athletes of all skill levels are welcome to participate in our Upward Sports league for basketball and cheerleading. Our coaches and volunteers invest not only in helping children learn and improve their mental and physical abilities, but also guide them to grow spiritually by learning the values of discipline, good sportsmanship, and being an encouragement to others. (And of course, they’ll have fun!)
