All games scheduled for tonight, Thursday, May 22, have been postponed due to poor field conditions.  The infields remain soft, uneven, and unsafe for play. We will reschedule and communicate updates to coaches as soon as they are available.

Opening Day may have been a little cold, but the spirit on the fields was anything but! It was great to see the girls out there playing hard, having fun, and kicking off the season together.

GVGS Discount Card Fundraiser – Now Underway!

We’re once again partnering with Impact Fundraising to raise money for the league through our popular GVGS Discount Cards—just $20 each for a full year of savings at 12 local vendors (including offers valid anywhere in the Twin Cities!).

Here’s what you need to know:

• Each player received a packet of 10 cards on Picture Day (May 17).
• Sell all 10 cards before Blitz Day (June 7) to earn prizes and cash rewards!
• Blitz Day (June 7): A fun team competition where players go door-to-door with parent drivers to maximize fundraising—and win awesome prizes!
• Cash bag grabs, free cards, and up to $300 for top sellers!

Let’s work together to support the league. All fundraising proceeds go directly toward making GVGS better for your players!

Parent & Spectator Expectations

GVGS is committed to fostering a positive, encouraging environment for our players—and we need your help to make that happen.

• Leave the coaching to the coaches
• Respect the umpires—no questioning or criticizing calls
• Applaud effort and performances on both sides
