The tournament began on July 9, 2022. Originally slated for the July 2, the tournament was pushed back due to the requests of the club teams.[1]

This is the first (second for the former SVL) conference of the league to commence an invitational conference. A total of eight teams will compete in this event, including one international team — KingWhale Taipei from Taiwan. The BaliPure Purest Water Defenders and F2 Logistics begged off from joining the conference.[2] A second guest team, Kobe Shinwa University, was supposed to join the semi-final round but backed out at the last minute.[2] Replacement guest Philippine National Team, composed mostly of NU Lady Bulldogs team members, also backed out.[3]

  • On August 6, the league announced that the Philippines women's national team will replace Kobe Shinwa Women's University due to COVID-19 concerns in Japan, the national team is eligible to vie for the championship.[3]
  • A day after the announcement of the supposed entrance of the Philippine national team into the tournament, the team begged off due to concerns of possible injuries that the players may sustain. The final round will only consist of five teams (top 4 local clubs, 1 guest club).[4][5] The team's core was composed of player and staff from the National University (NU) Lady Bulldogs. NU players and staff were released from the national team program by the Philippine National Volleyball Federation shortly after their withdrawal.[6] The team was due to participate in the 2022 Asian Women's Volleyball Cup and the new core of the squad is planned to compose the best finishing non-guest team in the conference.[5][7]

2022 Asian Women's Volleyball Cup

edit

As announced on August 7, the Philippine National Volleyball Federation stated that the best performing local team of the invitational conference will represent the Philippines in the 2022 Asian Women's Volleyball Cup.[23] As the semifinal round progressed, the PLDT High Speed Hitters is the first to initially accept its invitation to possibly participate on the mentioned tourney as the other top teams, Creamline and Cignal, have yet to express its interest to join.[24]

In spite of that, Creamline will represent the country since they accepted the federation's invitation to suit up in the national team as they emerged as the champions of the invitational conference.[25]
