Upward Basketball
The Purpose of Upward Basketball
We want children to
- Learn fundamental basketball. Our coaches and referees have been trained to teach basic skills to children new to basketball and work to improve the skills of experienced children.
- Build character. Sportsmanship and encouragement are both taught and modeled. Each week the team learns a Bible verse during practice.
- Learn about God’s love for them and their relationship with Him.
- Have FUN! Every player is introduced before the game, is given equal playing time during the game, and receives an award after every game.
