It's always a little nerve racking to agree to a responsibility without knowing the details of the role. Hopefully the following roles and responsibilities will alleviate some of those gitters.
Head Basketball Coach
As a Head Coach you will be given a "yours to keep" Coach's Manual. This will be your source for just about any question you might have about how to be a Head Coach in a kids basketball league. The Coach's Manual provides information on how to run a practice, questions about Game Day, and much, much more. Also, new for this year is the Upward Sports Coach's App available for iPhone, iPod, iPad, and the Andriod market.
Responsibilities:
Provide a safe, fun, learning environment for participants to learn the game of basketball.
Organize and lead a one hour practice each week of the season.
Follow Coach's Manual on equal playing time for each child.

Also, new for this year, the Head Cheerleading Director for Upward Sports, Dipali Britton (former Head Cheerleading coach for Clemson University), is available directly to assist our local program with innovative ideas, cheers, and more.
