We are
so pleased to have you check out Upward
Sports at Mountainside United Methodist Church. This is a highly regarded sports program in the mountain communities east of Albuquerque.Ê We
offer a safe and encouraging atmosphere, and games where everyone participates
equally. To join in, please select WeÕve had over 150 participants in each of the last 3 seasons.Ê The number of participants is limited by the number of coaches and the availability of the gym.Ê ÊTherefore some age/grade divisions may get full and registration will close for that division.Ê If this happens, your player will be placed on a waitlist.Ê Our maximum capacity is about 200 players. >>>>>>ÊÊ ÊYou should register early to ensure your participation.ÊÊÊ <<<<< We also hope that you parents volunteer to become part of this program. It takes a large number of adults to run a program of this size, and without volunteers, we can't offer the rewarding experiences that our kids need. Click on Volunteers Needed above to learn more.
