A hole near the bottom of the conduction band will have the same chirality as an electron.
The chirality would be just the opposite if we now consider the valence band (for both electrons and holes).

The effective masses will be of opposite sign. The group velocities will be the same.
$$m_e = -\frac{\hbar^2}{2ta^2cos(ka)}$$
$$v_e = -\frac{2tasin(ka)}{\hbar}$$
