Upward Flag Football and Cheerleading
Registration for the exciting 2010 Upward Flag Football and Cheerleading league is now underway! Our sports league is for boys and girls, PreK through 7th grade. Our goal is to provide a first-class sports experience that emphasizes healthy competition, sportsmanship, skills building and fun versus the "win-at-all-costs" mentality found in many children sports leagues.
On top of equipping children with sport fundamentals needed to participate at the next level, some unique features to Upward Sports are:
-
Each child is evaluated before the team selection process to create balanced teams that are competitive.
-
A unique substitution system which guarantees every child equal playing time.
-
We aim to teach both athletic skill as well as values for success on and off the playing field.
-
We prioritize a family friendly schedule by conducting one-hour practices and games each week.
-
With supportive coaches and a positive sports environment, we strive to bring out "the winner" in every child regardless of the game's score.
