James McKay Memorial Tournament
In memory of James McKay, we are proud to announce that we are renaming and dedicating our Chester County Challenge to the James McKay Memorial Tournament. Games will be played on March 16th & 17th.


We want to reengage you and encourage you to display our "Give a little, GET A LOT!" yard signs as we empower the entire Great Valley community to make a difference and contribute to the new community center.
We will not get the necessary financing to complete the project without raising additional funds. Our immediate goal is to raise an additional $1 million!

GVBL Tournament Teams
4th Grade Boys
The 4th grade boys were busy with GVBL Playoffs, fielding one team in the Malvern League today. Unfortunately, they lost a close one in the last minute of the game. 

4th Grade Girls
The Hurricanes got back on the winning track with a 30-8 victory over Villa on Saturday. Lillian Williams made several great passes that led to easy buckets for the team. The Storm played a double header against Lower Merion on Sunday. In the first game, Maura Wiggers made an excellent lead pass from out of bounds to Ava Hall for a lay-up to take the lead, 15-14, with 15 seconds to go. The Storm held on for the exciting win. In the second game, they battled, but fell 12-8 to the same team. In both games the Storm faced a solid zone defense and improved in both games with how to attack it.
The teams will look to finish up their Malvern League schedules next weekend. 
5th Grade Boys
The 2026ers had their first tournament win over at the Titus Sports Presidents’ Day Hoop Invitational at the 76ers Fieldhouse in Wilmington, DE.
