Upward Basketball is a huge ministry here at Pleasant Grove Baptist Church. It is a great time geared for children who want to play basketball or cheer without the highly tense moments of competitive behavior often found in local athletic associations. The two fold approach is to compete athletically AND teach about Christ. This is my fourth year coaching, and I love it. This year our league director called to ask if I would be willing to coach a girls team (grades 1-3). Now normally I coach boys from kindergarten through 3rd grade, but how can I say no to Daniel?
So......this was my first year coaching girls, and I have had an amazing time. The way that they act little princesses is fabulous. They talk, laugh, cheer, and hug...during the game! I love it! They pass the ball and encourage each other all the time. Truly this has been a great year. Thank you girls for a great season. Parents thank you for choosing us to teach your girls about basketball, but more importantly about Christ. Hope to see you next year!
