FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH OF HURRICANE, WV

 

www.upward.org 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.  Specifically designed for children in K5- sixth grade, Upward Sports aim to bring out “the winner” in every child – regardless of the game’s score.  First Baptist Church of Hurricane, WV has operated and supported a local Upward Basketball and/or Cheerleading League since 2001.
