Spikers' Turf Most Valuable Player award

The Spikers' Turf Most Valuable Player award is a Spikers' Turf award given to the best performing player of the conference. The award has been given since the league's first conference in 2015. Since 2025, the Premier Volleyball League (PVL) Press Corps have given out an annual version of the award.[1]

Unlike most other MVP awards, the league award is based on performance in a single conference rather than a full season, similar to the Philippine Basketball Association's Best Player of the Conference award. The PVL Press Corps award given during its PVL Press Corps Awards Night is based on performance throughout multiple conferences in a year, though not necessarily within a single season.

Marck Espejo and Jude Garcia are tied for the most MVP awards with five combined each across Spikers' Turf and the former PVL men's division. The only other player with multiple MVPs is Ranran Abdilla with 2.
