Spalding, Pro Volleyball Federation Extend Partnership

BOWLING GREEN, KENTUCKY (December 12, 2024) – Spalding and the Pro Volleyball Federation (PVF), the North American women’s professional volleyball league, extended their partnership, with Spalding continuing as the league’s Official Volleyball Net Equipment Supplier into 2027.

Building on the league’s successful inaugural season, where PVF teams played before nearly 400,000 fans and achieved significant social media growth, Spalding remains committed to enhancing the player and fan experience with its Freestanding Volleyball Systems. Since joining forces in 2024, Spalding has supplied the league with its innovative Freestanding Volleyball Systems, which eliminate the need for permanent installations, offering unmatched flexibility and ease of use. This cutting-edge equipment has played an integral role in providing a seamless on-court experience throughout the league’s first year, according to a news release.

“We’re thrilled to extend our partnership with Pro Volleyball Federation,” said Lisa M. Ebersole, Sr. Product Marketing Manager at Spalding. “This collaboration has been a game-changer, elevating the sport to new heights. By continuing our partnership, we’re committed to building on our success, fostering innovation, and inspiring the next generation of volleyball stars.”

“Pro Volleyball Federation was proud to partner with Spalding in our inaugural season,” noted Jen Spicher, CEO of the PVF. “It made perfect sense to continue working together to maintain and improve what was provided to our teams as we head into 2025. Our league and its teams appreciate all they have done to support and grow the sport of volleyball.”

The partnership extension underscores a mutual commitment to growing the sport at all levels. The eight-team PVF’s upcoming 2025 season kicks off in January, promising even more action-packed matches, increased attendance, and an unmatched fan experience.
