ABOUT US

VALLEY TIGERS STARTED IN 2022 AS A TRAVEL BASKETBALL ORGANIZATION THAT EXPANDED TO FOOTBALL, WITH THE HELP OF SOME VERY SPECIAL PEOPLE.

BASKETBALL

THROUGH THE STRUGGLES IN THE BEGINING, WE MANAGED TO PUT A TEAM TOGETHER WITH SOME YOUNG MEN THAT REFUSED TO GIVE UP. WE COMPETED IN 14U DIVISION WITH A GROUP RANGING IN AGE FROM 12 - 14. WE COMPETED IN TOURNAMENTS SUCH AS BRODY MICHAEL MEMORIAL, HOOPING FOR A CAUSE, HOOPIN FOR AUTISM AND A FEW BUMP AND RUN TOURNAMENTS. THIS ORGANIZATION WAS STARTED TO SHOWCASE THE ATHLETIC TALENT THROUGHOUT THE SHENANDOAH VALLEY, WE HAVE COME TO REALIZE, EVEN IF WE ARE OUT MATCHED WE WILL FIGHT UNTIL THE END. THE RESOLVE THAT THESE YOUNG ATHLETES SHOW ARE UNMATCHED AND CANNOT BE TAUGHT. THIS SEASON WE ARE HOPING TO EXPAND, MORE TEAMS, MORE COACHES, MORE ATHELETES, WITH THE HELP OF YOU, OUR COMMUNITY, I KNOW WE CAN. ANYONE INTERESTED IN COACHING, PLAYING OR JUST HELPING OUT PLEASE FEEL FREE TO REACH OUT, WE WOULD LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU.

FOOTBALL

WITH A MULTITUDE OF INTEREST FROM ALL AROUND THE AREA, WE WERE ABLE TO FEILD A 10U TEAM TO COMPETE IN THE BATTLE AT ROCKY TOP. THIS TEAM CONSISTED OF YOUNG MEN FROM ACROSS SHENANDOAH COUNTY, WARREN COUNTY AND BEYOND. OUR ATHLETES QUICKLY ADAPTED FROM COMPETEING AGAINST ONE ANOTHER TO COMPETEING WITH ONE ANOTHER, A BEATIFUL SITE TO SEE. BEING A FIRST, NOT ONLY FOR THE ATHLETES BUT FOR SOME OF THE COACHING STAFF AS WELL, I CAN HONESTLY SAY THAT WE PERFORMED WELL. NOW THAT THE WE HAVE GOTTEN RID OF "THE BUTTERFLIES" WE ARE LOOKING FORWARD TO RETURNING TO ONCE AGAIN SHOWCASE THE TALENT WE HAVE HERE IN THE VALLEY. I CAN TELL YOU, WHEN THE TOURNAMENT WAS OVER NOT ONLY WERE THE ATHLETES RARING TO GO MORE, THE PARENTS WERE AS WELL. I CAN'T SAY ENOUGH, HOW IMPORTANT IT IS TO HAVE A PARENT BASE WITH THE FORTITUDE THAT WE HAVE HAD THE LUXURY OF HAVING WITH THE PARENTS INVOLVED WITH VALLEY TIGERS.

BECOMING PART OF THE TEAM

COME JOIN A FAMILY ORIENTED ORGANIZATION THAT PRIDES IT SELF ON NOT ONLY TEACHING OUR ATHLETES THE SPORTS THAT THEY LOVE BUT BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS THAT WILL LAST BEYOND THEIR PLAYING CAREERS AND OUR COACHING CAREERS.

AS AN ATHLETE, ALL WE ASK, PUT TEAM BEFORE SELF, BE WILLING TO GIVE FULFLEDGED EFFORT AND ENJOY THE OPPORTUNITIES THAT WILL COME.

AS A COACH, WE ASK THAT YOU COME WITH THE UNDERSTANDNG, YOU ARE NOT AND THE ATHLETES ARE NOT PROFESSIONAL COACHES AND/OR PLAYERS. REMEMBERING THE ATHLETES ARE CHILDREN, THEY LEARN FROM WHAT THEY SEE. WINNING IS MEASURED IN NUMEROUS WAYS, THE SCORE BOARD DOES NOT ALWAYS REFLECT A WIN.
