I am so confused with what is going on with LOVB and PVF... This lineup is ridiculous for them They are basically trying to build a system similar to what they have in Europe in terms of professional volleyball. It has more grassroots support--and right now can probably offer more player equity than PVL.

so LOVB is done signing starting setters LOL still think they need to put their teams in the PVF. the only tricky thing at this point would be dealing with Atlanta no? no, i don't think so, but i'm only looking at it through the lens of other cities having multiple teams in the same sport (chicago white sox/cubs, ny giants/jets, los angeles lakers/clippers)

Given the different league structures, there’s no way the combine
One will run the other one out or they coexist

I thought I heard somewhere it was starting with 4 or 6 and then slowly trying to expand after that… maybe I heard wrong. there’s been a lot of rumors flying around LOL

so LOVB is done signing starting setters LOL still think they need to put their teams in the PVF. the only tricky thing at this point would be dealing with Atlanta no? Why would LOVB ever consider putting their teams in PVF? LOVB has been building this for 2+ years and PVF has been around for 6 months? League One initially planned to launch in 2024 but strategically bumped to 2025 because they realized the launch point was much higher following Paris. This move seems to be paying off. They are likely holding back more names given the names that were dropped today had to be done over the last couple of months. From my understanding PVF is selling franchises to fund their league and LOVB seems to be funding privately and holding onto their teams for now. As someone else mentioned, they also have the club/grassroots piece going for them too. This sets up the potential to be sustainable unlike any attempt prior (lets be honest, every US league attempt so far has failed). I'd say League One just made PVF the feeder league in 2025 and would expect for the the top of PVF to move to LOVB for the 2025 season. Regardless of how it all plays out (merger, folding, etc), all the attention our sport is getting from these two leagues launching is great.
