Promoting the discovery of jesus through sports

Upward Sports is an evangelistic sports ministry specifically designed for K5 through 6th-grade boys and girls that promotes the whole athlete through character development, self-esteem, and the sports-specific skills to play the game. Here at Geyer Springs, our goal is for players to be introduced to Jesus and to be trained in their specific sport. In this program, every child plays! Check out the Upward Sports website at www.upward.org.

upward soccer

Soccer leagues at Geyer Springs FBC are for boys and girls 4 years old - 7th grade. We look to develop the skills of each player and also give everyone an opportunity to learn the game, play the game and become more confident as a player. We also look to enhance players mentally, spiritually, and athletically through teaching skills, drills, and learning the fundamentals of the game at age appropriate levels.

Upward Soccer is offered during the spring semester of each year beginning in early March with evaluations and ending in mid-May with our Upward End of Season Celebration.

We offer co-ed leagues for boys and girls 4-years-old (by March 1) through 1st grade. We offer separate leagues for boys and girls 2nd grade through 7th grade. Practices are one night per week with most games taking place on Saturdays.

Season Schedule:
  • First Game day: Saturday, April 6th
  • Pictures: Week of April 15th (during practices)
  • Mid week games (replacing practice): Week of April 29th
  • Final Gameday: Saturday, May 11th
  • Tournament Championships (4th grade and up divisions only): May 13th and 14th
