About LOVB: (League One Volleyball)

League One Volleyball (LOVB, pronounced “love”) is reimagining the sport of volleyball. Launched in 2020, our company is a mission-led sports performance, development and professional league that seeks to empower new generations of women athletes.

It is a groundbreaking time for volleyball and women’s sports as we celebrate USA’s Olympic success and LOVB’s recognition as one of LinkedIn’s Top 50 Startups of 2024. There are 38M current and former players today. Of major sports, it's the only one that is women-first (~90% of players are women). But the volleyball market has been almost entirely missed by traditional sports investors, brands, and media.

LOVB is capturing this opportunity. Today, we have created the largest youth club business in the country and are creating the next major American sports league. This community-up approach will drive participation and fandom, while enabling greater empowerment for girls and young women living this amazing sport. In this role, you will join a mission-driven, roll-up-your-sleeves team of innovators and builders who have come together to change the paradigm of professional volleyball and women’s sport.
