The V-League 4th Season 2nd Conference is a tournament of the Shakey's V-League. The tournament began last October 14, 2007 at The Arena in San Juan. It ended last December 4, 2007 with the University of Santo Tomas Tigresses winning yet again against the first runner-up team from the 1st conference San Sebastian College - Recoletos Lady Stags in a dramatic 5-set game 3 finals match. These resulted in a back-to-back championship winning streak for the UST Tigresses as they are the defending champions from the 1st conference.

Tournament format

• Single Round Robin Tournament
• Top five teams will compete in the semi-finals
• Top two teams with the best record after the single-round robin semi-finals will advance to the finals

• Best of Three Championship series
  • If the battle for the gold ended in two games only, the battle for the bronze will be best of three also instead of one game.
