Open Board Positions Need to be Filled

Two important board positions need to be filled in the coming few weeks.  GVLL needs an Umpire Director and Concessions Director.  These positions have been filled for several years by the same board members and GVLL appreciates their time and dedication.  It is time for YOU to step up.  GVLL will be unable to start the 2012 spring season if these positions are not filled.  The Umpire Director is in charge of scheduling our youth umpires for the lower divisions.  The Concessions Director, along with their committee which we are also looking for volunteers, is in charge of running the SECOND BIGGEST INCOME GENERATOR for the league.  Contact President Mike Geib with any questions or to volunteer.   michaelgeib@comcast.net

Everything you wanted to know about the GVLL Junior Baseball Division

The goal of the Junior Division of Little League Baseball is to provide a good quality baseball experience to players league age 13 and 14 (age as of 4/30 of each year) as they transition from the 60 foot field to the 90 foot field.  The Junior Division is made up of two distinct levels, a Varsity Level and a Junior Varsity (JV) Level.  GVLL seeks to manage our play in the Junior Division in conformity with guidelines provided by PA District 27.  This document is intended to summarize the general process by which GVLL players are assigned to teams in this division and how such teams are designated between Varsity and JV.
