V-League moves Open Conference opening to May 22
The 2016 national elections season has pushed back the opening of the 13th Season of the Shakey’s V-League, the tournament’s commissioner said.
Tony Boy Liao said the initial date of May 15 was too close to the recently-concluded polls and admitted they needed more time to prepare for the Open Conference.
“Dahil kasi sa election, masyadong malapit ‘yung May 15 sa election period kaya we decided to move the opening,” said Liao.
