UPWARD SPORTS

Our Mission is promoting the discovery of Jesus through sports.

SPORTS + INTENTION = IMPACT

WHAT TO EXPECT

  • FOCUS ON FUN

    Our youth leagues emphasize total player development, the building of team dynamics, and healthy competition. Specially designed game rules ensure that individual players get more touches with the ball and more opportunities to learn, grow, and succeed on and off the field.

  • DEVELOP SKILLS

    Upward Flag Football is designed for young athletes to discover their passion for the sport as well as improve their game through healthy competition. Each week players will participate in one hour long practice to develop their skills and one hour long game to give them a chance for healthy competition.

  • TEACHING LIFE PRINCIPLES

    Upward Flag Football strives to develop youth mentally, athletically, spiritually, and socially. We don't want to simply teach players about football, but to equip them with team building and interpersonal skills that will help them develop beyond the football field.

UPWARD GAME DAY EXPERIENCE:

On Saturday mornings you will find a high energy atmosphere that is all about the players and cheerleaders. You will have the opportunity to have a front row seat to God given talent on display each week! Make sure you grab a snack from our concessions stand or participate in the halftime show each week. We don’t want anyone to miss out on an Upward Gameday experience!
