Thank you for visiting our Upward Program!
Parents LOVE to see their children have fun and be successful in every arena they
may participate. So why does this desire often turn into disaster when that arena
is sports? Athletics allow children to gain all the essentials we want for them:
fun, improving skills, friendships, discipline, and many more. Studies show that
73% of kids quit playing sports by the age 13 because it is no longer fun,
and that is just not acceptable. We at The River are committed to helping
children develop spiritually, physically, mentally and socially through sports.
Currently The River offers three sports programs thru Upward Ministries;
- Upward Flag Football in the Fall
- Upward Basketball in the Winter
- Upward Cheerleading with all sports
If your child is interested in participating in one of these programs, select the
