Upward Basketball and Cheerleading

Upward Basketball and Cheerleading

EVERY CHILD IS A WINNER!

Upward offers basketball leagues for boys and girls, as well as cheerleading, ages 5 years old (Kindergarten) through 8th grade and features equal teams, equal playing time, post-game awards, and much more! In Upward, not only do children learn about Jesus, but all participants have the opportunity to develop their character and self-esteem through healthy competition. Upward basketball or cheerleading is a 2-hour weekly commitment: practices and games are each one hour per week.
