What is Upward Basketball?
 
Upward Basketball provides each child with an equal opportunity for improvement through a substitution system that ensures: 
  • Every child will play at least half of the game.
  • No child will sit more than six minutes at a time.
  • Every child will have an opportunity to be in the starting lineup.
  • In most cases, each child will play against someone of equal ability.
  • Teams are chosen in such a way to have equal talent on each team.
 
Upward Basketball is part of Upward Sports, the world’s largest Christian sports program for children, was created with a vision to provide the best sports experience possible for every child.  Each year some 1 million people around the world play, coach, referee, or volunteer in Upward Sports leagues and camps hosted by more than 2,600 churches.  Anyone – children and volunteers of any faith or no faith – can participate in Upward Sports. Upward Sports aim to bring out “the winner” in every child – regardless of the game’s score.
