Tournament Team Tryouts

Tournament Teams are for players who want to play at a more highly competitive level. Players must be residents of Great Valley School District. Please see our GV Tournament Team Policies & Procedures on the Tournament Team section of the GVCO.org website.

 

To be eligible, players must also register and play in our GVBL Winter Recreational League. Register now for GVBL Winter Rec League!


Every player planning on participating on a GV Tournament Team must register for tryouts. There is a $15 fee per player to cover administrative and facility costs.


Players must be fully registered and paid PRIOR to the session. There will be no "Walk-in" registration.

 

Gen. Wayne Elementary is located at 20 Devon Rd., Malvern. Tryouts will take place in the lower gym.

K-2 Flag Football

Registration remains open

The Flag Football program is designed to introduce younger children to the sport, teach very basic fundamentals and most of all to have fun playing football. Teams will be split up by GVSD elementary school so kids can play with their classmates. 


All games and practices will be at the new Great Valley Community Center complex on Bacton Hill Rd. Weekend games will be 1 hour long, three practices at the beginning of the season, with the season concluding the 1st week of November.

Financing the New GVCO Community Center


It's time for everyone in our Great Valley community to GIVE BACK. The community's support over the past six years has been tremendous [Donor List (8/31) ]. Let's finish what we started, paying off the debt and moving forward with the next phase of the project. To do this, the support must continue and be more broad based.

 

We are asking for help from the entire Great Valley private, public and business community.

Ways You can Give

For further details on the project, how you can make a significant financial impact or information with regard to Naming Rights for the complex and areas throughout the project, please reach out to Keith Walsh at execdirector@gvco.org

GVBL Sponsors

The 2023-2024 Great Valley Basketball League (GVBL) basketball season is rapidly approaching. Do you have an interest in sponsoring one of our youth basketball teams this year? We invite you to support our highly successful GVBL youth basketball programming through advertising for your business.


Team jersey sponsorship is a great way to help provide much-needed support to our programming and promote our business partners. This annual campaign asks local businesses and those from the corporate community for sponsorship to support the Great Valley Basketball League (GVBL).


The program includes the business or corporate sponsor name featured on the jerseys of one of our 75+ youth basketball teams, along with multiple "touch points" throughout the season on our numerous GVCO communiqués (website, newsletters, updates, social media, etc.).
