We are in the process of making some changes to our policy related to the use of our basketball courts during the day.  For now, we are suspending full court basketball play in the afternoons and evenings until further notice.  The courts will continue to be available for half court play and shooting practice when the courts are not in use for other events/sports. With our courts busy with Upward Basketball practices and games, we feel that this is a good time to re-evaluate these policies. We will make an announcement about a new policy in the near future.  

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to me. 

Blessings,
