The 2023 Premier Volleyball League First All-Filipino Conference[a][1] was the fourteenth conference of the Premier Volleyball League and its fifth conference as a professional league. The tournament began on February 4, 2023, at the Smart Araneta Coliseum, Quezon City.[2]

Formerly known as the Open Conference, the conference was rebranded as the "All-Filipino Conference" to better reflect the fact that the tournament's participation is restricted to Filipino players, including Filipino-Foreigners.[3]

Finals

  2. Bronze medal: SF1 Loser vs. SF2 Loser
  3. Gold medal: SF1 Winner vs. SF2 Winner

Pool standing procedure

[edit]
  • First, teams are ranked by the number of matches won.
  • If the number of matches won is tied, the tied teams are then ranked by match points, wherein:
    • Match won 3–0 or 3–1: 3 match points for the winner, 0 match points for the loser.
    • Match won 3–2: 2 match points for the winner, 1 match point for the loser.
  • In case of any further ties, the following criteria shall be used:
    • Set ratio: the number of sets won divided by number of sets lost.
    • Point ratio: number of points scored divided by number of points allowed.
    • Head-to-head standings: any remaining tied teams are ranked based on the results of head-to-head matches involving the teams in question.
