About Us
Our Mission
We are dedicated to serving families through sports and recreational ministry, and we need your help. For over a decade, our staff has been providing Upward Sports in the Elmore and Autauga area. In that time, we have seen many players come to know Jesus as Savior.
​
With 10 acres of soccer, football, and baseball fields, a walking track, a pavilion, and a building that will accommodate other activities, there is so much more than can be done. We are looking for ministry partners from churches across the area to join together to lead players and families to a relationship with Christ through recreational ministry. With the help of fellow believers in Christ, we can expand ministry opportunities, and expand the Kingdom of God.

The Discipline of Excellence
We believe in serving that exceeds expectations.
The Priority of Children
We believe that every child is a winner.
“There’s really no concern for us as church leaders locally about denominational lines. The thing we’re concerned about is do you know and love Jesus Christ? And can you instill that into your players? If you can do that, you can serve here.”
Coach Dave Hicks
“Families feel it’s a safe place to come. They drop their drama at the driveway. There’s no drama in the fields. So it’s a very pleasant place to come on a Saturday morning. And families want that, and they don’t always get that in every other sports experience.”
