Shakey’s girls volleyball expands to 32 teams, 2 divisions
A record 32 teams will compete in the 2025 Shakey's Girls Volleyball Invitational League (SGVIL), which begins on May 28 at La Salle Greenhills.
The tournament will feature two divisions: Division 1 with 20 teams and Division 2 with 12 teams.
Defending champion Adamson University, UAAP champion NU-Nazareth School, and inaugural winner California Academy will lead the teams in Division 1.
Dr. Ian Laurel, president of the organizing body, stated that the expansion is partly to celebrate Shakey's golden anniversary and to accommodate more schools that have expressed interest in participating.
Laurel also mentioned that the top two teams from Division 2 will be invited to compete in Division 1 in the following year, providing an avenue for development and exposure for newer teams.
The top two teams from each of the four pools will advance to the knockout quarterfinals, then the one-game semifinal, and final.
