History
The Pro Volleyball Federation was announced in November 2022 as a new professional women's league that focused on giving American players access to high level volleyball at home while also making a livable wage. The founders of the league include Super Bowl winning quarterback Trent Dilfer along with volleyball pioneers Cecile Reynaud and Laurie Corbelli. The league was initially expected to include 10 teams but the league would lower the number to 8 in later reports. The first franchise was awarded to a group that will bring a team to Grand Rapids, Michigan. In February 2023, it was announced that singer-songwriter Jason Derulo would team up to own a team that will be based out of Omaha, Nebraska. Atlanta, Georgia was then announced as the second market, followed by Columbus, Ohio. The first 2025 franchise was awarded to a group led by Armand Sadoughi in July 2023 that will bring a team to Dallas, Texas.
The league debuted with a match between the Atlanta Vibe and Omaha Supernovas on January 24, which set a record for attendance at a women's professional volleyball match in the United States of 11,624.
