SPORTS

BASKETBALL

Upward Basketball
www.UpwardHarford.com
Our culture has created a "win at all cost mentality" - most points, most trophies, most championships - generally defines a winner. Upward defines winning as learning and/or teaching lessons in the game of life. Parents, coaches and officials play a vital role in building the self-esteem and character of every child in this league. Players will look to their parents, coaches, and officials as models for sportsmanship, respect for authority, and positive attitudes. Together we can provide a lasting effect in these children that will last long after the end of the season.
Drills and scrimmages will be held the week of May 16-20, 2011  Every player must attend your basketball evaluation appointment.
