Your league will be a light in a dark place. It is a safe place for kids to learn and to be loved on. I’ve seen God do big and miraculous things through our league!

It’s the best way to engage a lost community without having to beg them to come to church. They come on their own terms and enjoy it and you earn the right to tell them about Jesus.

Upward listened first and gave options with details. Upward provided me with all the info (budget, the why, and what) that was easy to understand and then easy to share with others when starting out.

As one of the first partners through Project Select, the Upward Sports team walked me through it. It was the ultimate example of teamwork. The jerseys look great, the technology features are fantastic, and the customized player package meets the needs of my community.
