Upward Basketball is designed to promote healthy competition and sportsmanship while also teaching the objectives of game play. Coaches will teach the basic fundamentals of basketball through drills, games, and scrimmages along with sharing life lessons through mid-practice huddles. While teaching the game, a coach's top priority is to promote the discovery of Jesus through sports. You can help support the coach in how you officiate the game.

As an Upward Basketball Referee, you serve as an on-the-floor coach, teacher, and encourager.

Please watch this 35-minute training video so that you are prepared to officiate the game.
