The Spikers' Turf is a men's volleyball league in the Philippines organized by Sports Vision Management Group, Inc. (Sports Vision).
History
The league had its beginnings in 2014, when the Shakey's V-League introduced a men's division during its 21st conference.[1][2][3] The following year, Sports Vision decided to spin-off the men's division as a separate league, giving birth to the Spikers' Turf.[4][5]
In late-2016, Sports Vision announced that the league be merged back in the 2017 season with the Shakey's V-League (which was renamed as the Premier Volleyball League).[6][7] The men's division in the PVL ended with the 2018 PVL Collegiate Conference as its final tournament. The Spikers' Turf was revived on October 6, 2018.[8]
