The Shakey's Super League (SSL) is a women's collegiate volleyball league in the Philippines.[1] The league is organized by Shakey's Pizza Asia Ventures Inc. (SPAVI) and the Athletic Events and Sports Management Group Inc. (ACES).[2][3]
History[edit]
The Shakey's Super League was formally launched on August 16, 2022, at the Shakey's Pizza ASEANA outlet in Parañaque City.[4] This marks the return of Shakey's Pizza in Philippine volleyball since they served as the title sponsor for the Shakey's V-League (now Premier Volleyball League) from 2004 to 2017.[4]
The inaugural season was the Collegiate Pre-Season Tournament composed of teams from the University Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP) and the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) held from September 22 to November 28, 2022, in Metro Manila.[4] The first tournament marks the return of full preseasons for the UAAP and NCAA teams since they were forced to resort to tune-ups due to disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.[5]
The second tournament was the Shakey's Girls' Volleyball Invitational League (SGVIL), which was for high school teams instead of collegiate teams. Its participants include both from the NCAA and the UAAP and four teams from schools outside Metro Manila. It was launched in May 2023.[6]
