Support Our GVBL Seniors! | |
|
The GVBL Boys High School League will be holding an "All-Star" tournament to honor this year's crop of senior players. All registered senior players are invited to participate and it is tentatively scheduled for Wednesday night February 21st at 7:30 PM at the GVCO Community Center.
We have 39 seniors registered this winter so we'll allocate all players across 4 teams and then hold a round-robin tournament where each team plays three 20 minute games with a championship game to follow. It gives us a chance to recognize the senior class, many of which have been playing in GVBL since 1st grade. Each player will receive a special game jersey and there is no cost to participate. Thank you, Barrow Insurance, who is sponsoring the event.

The ladies of the Hive are powering through a tough, injury filled season. They are sitting in 6thplace in Division 1 of the ICBA, which represents the best of the best in school district-based basketball in the State and surrounding area - this slate typically includes the top 3 or 4 teams in the State every year, and this year is no exception. The Girls continue to work on fundamentals, while also beginning to learn some of the concepts run by the GV High School Girls’ Team.
This week features a Prime Time matchup against rival and #3 seed Springford at Great Valley Middle School this Friday night at 8:30pm. If you are free come on out and bring your popcorn, it should be a terrific matchup. The girls look to finish strong and head into the playoffs in hopes of earning a shot at the Division 1 ICBA championship!

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 (12/31/23) ]. 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.
| |
|
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
