Team Dinners
Text Box: The Avon Lake student athletes who participate in the basketball and basketball cheerleading programs are very fortunate. In addition to weekly team dinners, which small groups of parents take turns providing every Thursday night for the Varsity and JV players, there are also “after the game” meals provided for all Varsity and JV players, Cheerleaders and coaches immediately following each home game. Varsity & JV Team Dinners:  This dinner is hosted by JV and Varsity parents.  The parents host an after practice dinner the night before the game and is usually held at the Avon Lake Commons or at a Parent home.  They are usually co-hosted by multiple parents.  The dinners are designed to create camaraderie and a team atmosphere for the boys, parents and coaches.  The dinners are for the JV & Varsity players and Cheerleaders. “After the Game” Dinner:  The “After the Game” dinner is usually immediately following all Home games.  The dinner was created to allow players, parents, cheerleaders and coaches a chance to re-group after the game, enjoy a meal and “relax” together following a hard-fought game regardless of the outcome.  Volunteer parents traditionally serve the dinner and it is conducted immediately following the game.  The “After the Game Dinners” are for the JV & Varsity players, Coaches and Cheerleaders. It has been our great fortune to have Jim Gamellia, of Gamellia Construction Company generously fund these after game dinners since their inception three seasons ago.   

The Avon Lake Boys Basketball program would like to thank Jim Gamellia for his support and sponsorship of the “After the Game” Dinners!  Thank you Mr. Gamellia !
