UPWARD Sports
Upward, 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. Specifically designed for children in K5- sixth grade, Upward aims to bring out “the winner” in every child – regardless of the game’s score.
Top reasons children quit playing organized sports include:
- Not having fun
- The coach played favorites
- Too much emphasis is placed on competition
- Frustration with not getting to play
At Saint Mark, we are excited for the opportunity to reach kids with the Gospel message of Jesus Christ while providing an uplifting, athletic environment.
