Following a merger with the Pro Volleyball Federation in 2025, Major League Volleyball is getting ready for its debut season as the premier unified professional women's league.

Introducing new governance, ownership standards and plans for expansion teams, MLV is on track to change the face of women's volleyball in the U.S. The Pro Volleyball Federation had two extremely successful seasons prior to the joint venture, with impressive engagement and attendance.

In hopes of expanding the PVF's fanbases, Major League Volleyball will carry over each of the eight original franchises. MLV will look to target the Washington D.C., Minnesota and Northern California markets in the coming years.
