One of the things that makes Upward so much fun is the opportunity for friends to play together, and we have bent over backward in the past to try and accommodate player requests through coach and carpool links. However, over the past few seasons, we have seen a downside to this as well: when teams are not balanced, some teams will win most (or even all) of their games, while other teams struggle to win even a game or two.  

We are committed to making Upward fun for EVERY player, and so our top priority is to create even teams. With that in mind, please note: THIS IS THE FINAL SEASON WE WILL HONOR CARPOOL LINKS. We will honor ONE carpool link per player for the 2019 season, and BOTH PLAYERS must list the other for the carpool link to be active. Carpool links will be honored on a first come, first serve basis.

This does NOT apply to the children of coaches, who are automatically assigned to their father's team if he is coaching.   

These changes will help Upward remain fun for everyone. We are confident from past experience that your kids will have as much fun playing against their friends as they will playing with them. Thank you in advance for your understanding and support of Upward Flag Football & Cheerleading.

We are looking forward to a great season!
