Customarily, the PVL conducts three conferences each season, namely Open, Reinforced, and Collegiate Conferences.

However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Collegiate Conference became impossible to hold as face-to-face classes are yet to be allowed.

On the other hand, the Open Conference successfully ended last month under a bubble format in Bacarra, Ilocos Norte, but the Reinforced Conference was concurred by the 11 teams to be postponed.

In a text message, PVL commissioner Tonyboy Liao confirmed the said decision.

“We had a meeting last Friday with all the Club teams representatives and it was unanimously decided that we will just take a break this year so players can rest,” Liao shared.

Still, the PVL was hoping to corroborate the second professional conference by featuring Open Conference and import-flavored Reinforced Conference that are expected to begin sometime in February and October, respectively. 

“It will be a new Professional Season with 2 Conferences. Open and hopefully Reinforced,” Liao said.

Meanwhile, PVL has 11 teams consisting of Chery Tiggo, Creamline, Petro Gazz, Choco Mucho, Sta. Lucia, PLDT, Black Mamba-Army, BaliPure, Perlas Spikers, Cignal, and F2 Logistics.
