    Our Flag Football and Cheerleading league offers a positive environment for each participant, while also offering a great sports learning opportunity. Our focus is on the athlete’s total development - not only physically, but mentally, socially, and spiritually.

    We are excited to once again offer this Flag Football and Cheerleading program to our surrounding communities for children aged 5-13.

    Our league begins with a FREE 2-day clinic the beginning of August where athletes are taught and practice the fundamentals of the sport. This also gives the directors and coaching staff the opportunity to evaluate each athlete’s skill set. This process allows athletes to be evenly distributed across the teams in each division.

    General Schedule:
    Practices are 1.5 hours long, one night each week @ Dryden Wesleyan Church

    Each team will play 6 Games

    Games last approximately 1 hour

    5 Game Days will be held at the DWC football field on Sunday afternoons

    The end of the season, game 6, will be held “Under the Lights” on Saturday mid October starting at 6PM

  • The Upward Sports Mission is to Promote the Discovery of Jesus Through Sports. Our DWC program is designed to be family friendly. It not only teaches individuals to become great athletes who play with passion, but also athletes who play with purpose. Our goal is that everyone involved might develop a relationship with Jesus Christ to become the mentally, physically, spiritually and socially strong/whole individual God created them to be.
