- More players and new divisions for greater success and competition in age groups.

Get ready for our 2nd season of UPWARD K. Upward K is designed to give 4-5 year olds a fun experience while introducing them to the game of basketball. The players will get the same Upward gear as the older kids, but they will practice and play games geared specifically for this age group on Saturday mornings for one hour. These players will not need to attend an evaluation.
If your player is in kindergarten and has previous basketball experience, you may sign them up to play in the 1st-2nd grade division. In this division, they will have a weekly practice and play regular games on Saturday mornings. These players must attend an evaluation.
Does your daughter want to learn the basics of cheer and have a great time encouraging the players on the court? Upward Cheerleading is the perfect, pressure-free environment for girls who want to have fun, learn cheer moves, dance and make new friends! Cheer teams will practice once a week for one hour and cheer for a different team each Saturday during games. Cheerleaders will receive a uniform, megaphone, car magnet, music CD, poms, and end of season award.
