rosters are in the GVBL App
Team rosters were posted on the GVBL yesterday, hopefully you have all been able to sign up/access the app and find your child's team. If you have not accessed the GVBL app, please do so as most GVBL winter Rec League information will be available through it.
Girls 7-8 should look for an email from the coordinator.
This evening, division rosters, coach contact information and practice information have been placed on the GVCO.org website.
Please go to the News and Updates page under the Basketball tab on the site. All of this information is available there.
During the weekend, the coaches will reach out via email to introduce themselves and welcome your family to the team. Practices will begin the week of November the 8th. A GVBL Winter Rec League game schedule will be available early next week with games beginning the weekend of November 12th-14th.
Thanks for your patience and we are very much looking forward to the kids getting back on the court once again!

GVCO Community Partnership |

Philadelphia is the nation's poorest big city with nearly 300,000 children living in poverty across the region. Cradles 2 Crayons Philadelphia has a reach that goes well beyond the borders of the city itself.

Chester County, including the Malvern area, is included in the region in which C2C is having an impact. GVCO is once again partnering with C2C, hosting our 3rd Annual Donation Drive. Reaching out to our Great Valley community in an effort to help those right here in our area.
Part of C2C's mission: "Our whole focus is to make our collaborative process as easy and streamlined as possible. This helps us to empower the children we serve collaboratively — at home, at school, and at play — by providing the everyday essentials that match their individual needs." GVCO's reach here in the community, coupled with C2C's ability to reach those in need is the perfect partnership for our GVCO Caring Hands foundation.
Childhood poverty is a serious nationwide issue and the local area is not immune. Without adequate and appropriate clothing, children face unfair barriers and participate in life on an unequal playing field. Cradles to Crayons uses the term “Clothing Insecurity” as part of our efforts to formally recognize the issue, and increase awareness on this hidden basic need.
GVCO is proud to be partnering with such a worthy organization in helpng C2C reach its inspiring mission and goals.

Daughter:`Hey Dad",
Me, "Greatest thing I'll ever be"

What GVCO provided for me and the girls CAN NOT be overstated. Picking them up after school, getting to practice/games, out to eat, hanging with other parents, etc. We got to interact/experience a bit of actual day/day life on life's terms. Nothing takes the place of being there and for sure some things would have been different. So many experiences, "Experience is what you get when you don't get what you want". I got to play Dad and coach...and the girls had a role model.
Know that GVCO has made a difference in the lives of my daughters and myself. That is very noble.
-Tom Farrelly,
GVBL Ref & GV Dad whose daughters are GVSD graduates and GVBL participants.
