Upward Basketball and Cheerleading is for boys and girls from Kindergarten age through sixth grade. The Kindergarten League is an instructional league and is coed, with boys and girls on each team. The teams and leagues for first through sixth grade are gender specific as are the Cheerleading teams.

Each team will have three or four preseason practices. During the season, each team will practice one hour each week on a night and at a time that is consistent throughout the season. Games are for one hour on eight consecutive Saturdays at a time that will vary each week.

Every child is evaluated and attempts are made to create fair and equal teams and fair individual matchups. (Absolute equal matchups are desirable but, of course, not always possible.) Every child plays at least half the game and every child is recognized after each game.

Each player receives an Upward reversible jersey and shorts and an end-of-season award.

Upward Sports Programs are designed to promote character and self esteem in each child and to ensure that "every child plays, every child learns, and every child is a winner."
