Welcome to Upward, where Every Child IS a Winner!

Sports are a great way for children to learn about teamwork, respect for authority and sportsmanship.  The sad part is all those things are being lost in today's sporting society. With an Upward sport, these key essentials are included to create the best sporting experience for every child that participates. Each Upward Sport is designed to reveal the winner in every child.

Every child plays. Every child learns. Every child IS a Winner!

Join with the churches of the North Little Community as our children play basketball.  We are promoting character and self-esteem in every child by:

• Providing an evaluation system that promotes equal teams and opportunities
• Establishing a one-hour practice and game each week
• Implementing a substitution system for each team, allowing every child equal playing time
• Creating the opportunity for every child to learn the skills of the game
•  The emphasis is placed on having fun and good sportsmanship, not the scoreboard and standings.
