Delva is a Spring Valley HS graduate and has dedicated himself to Spring Valley High School. Besides Football, he also coaches track and field. Rockland & Spring Valley are extremely lucky to have an individual like Andrew Delva mentoring the youth in our community.

An incident that shows Coach Delva’s character and dedication occurred in 2018.

After coaching the Spring Valley HS Football team on Friday night, Coach Andrew Delva Sr. woke up early Saturday morning to coach the Spring Valley Pop Warner team – the Hornets.

At the end of a long day filled with multiple games, he was filmed by parents from the opposing team cleaning the stands himself.

In March of 2020, Laurie Santulli County Legislator presented Coach Delva with the Distinguished Service Award.

But in return students know they will have the strongest and most dedicated man in their corner for life. “ said Spring Valley HS teacher and Rockland County Legislator Laurie Santulli.
