The '''V.League''' '''1''' ({{Langx|ja|Vリーグ}}) is the top-level professional [[volleyball]] league for both men and women in [[Japan]]. The league started in 1994.


The competitions are organized by the Japan Volleyball League Organization. In 2006 the name ''V.League'' was changed to '''V.Premier League'''. In 2018 the name ''V.Premier League'' was changed to '''V.League Division 1 (V1).'''
The competitions are organized by the Japan Volleyball League Organization. The league was called '''V.Premier League''' before the reform took place in 2018.


==History==
==Clubs (2022–23 season)==
===V.League===
In 2016, the Japan Volleyball League Organization, which hosts''' Premier League''', held a press conference in Tokyo and announced plans to create a new league and aim for professionalization. They plan to recruit participating teams by the end of November and aim to start in the fall of 2018.<ref>{{Cite web |title=バレーボールリーグ機構 新リーグとプロ化を構想を発表 - スポニチ Sponichi Annex スポーツ |url=https://www.sponichi.co.jp/sports/news/2016/09/20/kiji/K20160920013391780.html |access-date=2023-06-28 |website=スポニチ Sponichi Annex |language=ja}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Vリーグを世界のトップリーグへ 「Vリーグの未来構想」について |url=https://vleague.jp/ |access-date=2023-06-28 |website=一般社団法人日本バレーボールリーグ機構}}</ref>

This project to create a new league was called NEW BORN V.LEAGUE. The new league was named '''V.League'''. The new V.League aims to promote the "sports business" of volleyball by realizing a system of "earning through sports and returning the profits to sports" without being bound by conventional concepts. In addition, the V.League aims to further enhance the value of volleyball, push volleyball up to Japan's top arena sports, connect with the world, and become the world's best volleyball league.<ref>{{Cite web |title=2018/19シーズン 新リーグ名称・ロゴデザイン決定のお知らせ 記者会見を開催! |url=https://vleague.jp/ |access-date=2023-06-28 |website=一般社団法人日本バレーボールリーグ機構}}</ref>

===Creation of SV.League===
The Japan Volleyball League Organization would create the [[SV.League]] as the newest top-flight volleyball organization Japan placing it above the V.League.<ref>{{Cite web |last=只木信昭 |date=2023-02-15 |title=2024年発足の新Vリーグ構想を説明 30年をメドに世界最高峰リーグ目指す/バレー |url=https://www.sanspo.com/article/20230215-HZFZ2KXDL5DALFEEX2YMRGSWCA/ |access-date=2023-06-24 |website=サンスポ |language=ja}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=【バレー】Vリーグ機構が新リーグ構想を発表。世界最高峰を目指す「S-V.LEAGUE」を新設(バレーボールマガジン) |url=https://news.yahoo.co.jp/articles/064414a51baeb4f52989116ca9ebbecddaca545d |access-date=2023-06-24 |website=Yahoo!ニュース |language=ja}}</ref>

For teams that do not wish to join the SV.League, both men's and women's leagues will be unified into one division under the name of V.League. The East-West Conference system will be introduced.<ref>{{Cite web |title=バレーVリーグ再編成「SVリーグ」来年10月発足「世界最高峰のリーグになるチャンスある」 - スポニチ Sponichi Annex スポーツ |url=https://www.sponichi.co.jp/sports/news/2023/04/27/kiji/20230427s00070000027000c.html |access-date=2023-06-28 |website=スポニチ Sponichi Annex |language=ja}}</ref>

The V.League 1 (Japanese: Vリーグ) is the top-level professional volleyball league for both men and women in Japan. The league started in 1994.

The competitions are organized by the Japan Volleyball League Organization. The league was called V.Premier League before the reform took place in 2018.

History

[edit]

V.League

[edit]

In 2016, the Japan Volleyball League Organization, which hosts Premier League, held a press conference in Tokyo and announced plans to create a new league and aim for professionalization. They plan to recruit participating teams by the end of November and aim to start in the fall of 2018.[1][2]

This project to create a new league was called NEW BORN V.LEAGUE. The new league was named V.League. The new V.League aims to promote the "sports business" of volleyball by realizing a system of "earning through sports and returning the profits to sports" without being bound by conventional concepts. In addition, the V.League aims to further enhance the value of volleyball, push volleyball up to Japan's top arena sports, connect with the world, and become the world's best volleyball league.[3]

Creation of SV.League

[edit]

The Japan Volleyball League Organization would create the SV.League as the newest top-flight volleyball organization Japan placing it above the V.League.[4][5]

For teams that do not wish to join the SV.League, both men's and women's leagues will be unified into one division under the name of V.League. The East-West Conference system will be introduced.[6]

Clubs (2024-2025 season)

[edit]

The League currently consists of the following member clubs:
