Our History

Great Valley Community Organization (GVCO) is an outgrowth of the Great Valley Basketball League (GVBL) that started in 2001 with 60 girls. Since its inception, GVCO has grown to serve countless children and adults offering programs in basketball, football, sideline cheer, volleyball, crew, girls youth lacrosse, pickleball and competitive cheer annually.

GVCO is a 501(c) (3) nonprofit organization driven by its core of dedicated volunteers. In recent years, GVCO has expanded to include tutoring, arts, senior programs, community and educational events as well as new sports to serve the entire Great Valley community. Since GVCO’s beginnings more than a decade ago, the Great Valley population has increased by nearly 150% and had changed dramatically, both in terms of demographics and the growing demand for additional youth, adult and senior programming.
