V-League Visayas was first announced on March 21, 2025 with Ken Ucang as its commissioner. Sports Vision president Ricky Palou stated that the tournament will "complement the CESAFI tournaments by giving players more opportunities to excel." Multiple schools across Cebu City have backed and expressed support for the regional league.
