  • The Upward Sports Mission is to Promote the Discovery of Jesus Through Sports. Our DWC program is designed to be family friendly. It not only teaches individuals to become great athletes who play with passion, but also athletes who play with purpose. Our goal is that everyone involved might develop a relationship with Jesus Christ to become the mentally, physically, spiritually and socially strong/whole individual God created them to be.
