Even with a rainy end to the first day of games, the GVBL summer league is back! It was great to see so many players and spectators come out to games at KD Markley and Great Valley High School.
We want to thank all of the volunteer coaches, student referees, and adult referees for making the week run smoothly. If you follow GVBL social media, you may have seen some of the great pictures that we took of several games. We will be featuring teams every day and posting those pictures online. Check them out on Instagram at @gvcobasketball or on Facebook at @GVCOBasketball.
GVBL App:
Please download the GVBL app to stay up to date on the latest with schedules, rosters, and rain delays!
Rain Rescheduling:
In the event of a rainout, games will be rescheduled into rainout slots later in July.
Short Benches and Vacations:
In the event that a team cannot fill all five positions, the game will be forfeited, but we will still try to play 4 vs 4 or move players around to get a game going. The summer league is about getting out to play!
Website and App:
All of this information and more can be found on the GVBL Summer League section of the GVCO website and on the GVBL App.

Summer Tutoring
This school year brought with it many challenges. Students should be looking to finish this school year as strong as possible while any academic deficiencies need to be addressed to ensure future success.
This summer presents an opportunity for students of all ages to catch up on any school subjects they have fallen behind on, especially in cumulative courses like math, where each prior year builds on the last. Whether your student needs to catch up on course content, or get a head start on preparing for the SAT/ACT, contact us to set up a call to discuss their academic situation and what Ivy Experience can do to support them.

GVCO CHOOSES LOCAL COMMUNITY BANK & LONG TIME PARTNER FOR NEW GVCO COMMUNITY CENTER PROJECT
GVCO recently announced it has chosen Meridian Bank to handle its financing needs with our new GVCO Community Center project. An appraisal of the property has been ordered and our GVCO Board, along with MacElree Harvey, Ltd are finalizing the terms of the loan. IMC Construction, GVCO’s general contractor, is finalizing the construction budget and timeline for Meridian.
Our GVCO Board felt it was important to choose a local banking partner who also has a vested interest in our Great Valley community. Meridian was a logical choice beyond the outlined initial terms. Chris Annas, the bank's founder has long-lasting ties to our community and GVCO…having lived here and his kids participating in GVCO programming. Meridian was also the bank chosen back in 2005 when GVBL needed a Letter of Credit in order to open the old GVBL Center on Bacton Hill Rd.
GVCO looks forward to continuing to work with our long time banking partner Meridian Bank, to bring this wonderful community asset, the new GVCO Community Center to fruition for entire community to enjoy.
