INSIDE THE HUDDLE

GVFL WEEKLY UPDATE
October 19, 2022
Homecoming is This Weekend!
Sunday, Oct. 23rd is our last regular season home game and Homecoming at Valley Stadium.

It's a tradition that players will be announced individually prior to the start of their team's game. Parents should plan to be on the field for the pre-game announcements to receive a flower and gift from their player.

We will also honor the class of 2023 former Jr. Patriots football players and cheerleaders just prior to the 6th grade Grey game at approximately 2pm.

Save the Date - End of Season Wrap Up Event @ GVHS is Nov 13th.
Purchase Tickets for the Junior Patriots Social!
After a full day of homecoming games, join us for the Junior Patriots adult social at Barnaby's in West Chester for a fun night of food, drinks and giveaways!

Flag Football News
The cool, crisp fall mornings are here and great to see the boys out on the field. Special reminder that due to darkness, we will NOT be having practice this week or next as outlined in the schedule. Saturday AM we have Black (wear blue jersey) vs. Gray (wear white jersey) and Blue vs White.  

We are going to need some extra help on Saturday as I know a couple of coaches can't be there. Please help where you can.

On Sunday, 10/23, we are looking to have a short flag football exhibition at half-time of the 2nd/3rd grade tackle football game at GV Stadium. Players will need to arrive by 9:15 and will be done by 9:45. 

In order to be sure we have enough players, we have created a sign-up sheet in the Snack Sign-up Genius:

Season Remainder:

  • Saturday 22-Oct 9-10 AM Black vs. Gray // Blue vs White
  • Saturday 29-Oct 9-10 AM Black vs. Blue // Gray vs. White
