The Shakey's V-League will begin its 12th season, and for the third straight year, the league air on GMA News TV and GMA Life TV starting April 5, Sunday.
 
Atty. Felipe Gozon, chairman and CEO of GMA Network, met with Sports Vision Management Group president Ricky Palou and chairman Moying Martelino to sign the two-conference deal.

Competing in the tournament are PLDT Home Ultera, Philippine Army, Philippine Navy, Philippine Coast Guard, Cagayan Valley Rising Suns, Meralco Power Spikers, and newcomers Fourbees and Baguio.
 
“This time, we have eight good teams. Meralco, Navy, Army, Coast Guard, and may teams rin kami galing Baguio and Cavite. Exciting itong open conference na ito. We have the stronger teams, of course, like Cagayan, PLDT, and Army. And the other teams are expected to put up a good fight. Lalaban din sila, syempre,” said Palou.
 
"We're really very happy na nagkakaroon na ng following ang volleyball. Inumpisahan namin ito ng napakaliit. Siguro wala pang 200 ang nanonood noon, pero ngayon, nasa libo-libo na ang nanonood," he added.
 
Palou also confirmed that the league's 12th season open conference will consist only of local players. Imports will only be allowed to play in the third conference.
 
Aside from Shakey's V-League Season 12 Open Conference, Sports Vision also included a men's volleyball division called “Spikers' Turf” which will start on Sunday.
