Upward Soccer is a national evangelistic
sports ministry specifically
designed for kindergarten through
sixth grade boys and girls that
promotes salvation, character, and
self-esteem in every child.
Swift Creek Baptist offers a full
program of Upward Soccer for children
grades K through 6th grade in
the Spring of each year. Practices
and games will be at
the church. (Click

Upward Soccer
goals:
- Keeping sportsmanship and
competitiveness in proper
perspective by not maintaining
league standings in any division
- Maximizing the family schedule
by having only one hour of
practice and one game each week
- Equipping coaches and referees
to minister by providing extensive
teaching tools and simplified
rules format
- Allowing the coach to focus on
ministering to children and their
families, instead of game
strategy, by having a set
substitution system where all
players are allowed equal playing
time and equal opportunity for
improvement.
- Scripture-based devotions
during each practice for players
and spectators; halftime
testimonies each gameday.
- Encouraging each player with a
gameday award following every game
- Providing opportunities to see
changed hearts and lives among
children, family members, and
volunteers who experience an
Upward ministry.
- Building toward a harvest time
at Awards Night where participants
and parents are given an
opportunity to respond to the
Gospel.
