Sports | Upward Volleyball

We are excited about our inaugural volleyball season! Girls of all skill levels in third through eighth grade are welcome to participate in our Upward Volleyball league this Fall.

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!)
