2025 MLV Draft Order Announced

Columbus Fury News Release


COLUMBUS, Ohio - The next generation of professional volleyball players will be selected as part of the 2025 MLV Draft, set to take place on Monday, November 24. The Columbus Fury will have three selections in the MLV Draft, including the ninth overall pick in the second round as well as the 20th and 27th overall picks.

Team order was determined by slotting teams into two groups. The non-postseason teams and any expansion team(s) comprise the first group of selections from 1 to 4 in each round. The second half of each round (picks 5-8) is made up of the teams that earned postseason bids.

Leading the way will be the newest team - the Dallas Pulse - who will select No. 1 overall prior to the start of its first Major League Volleyball season. The Fury would have had the rights to the second overall choice, but the actual selection this year will be made by the Atlanta Vibe as the result of a trade for Tori Stringer that took place during the league's first season.

Next up will be the No. 3 pick by the San Diego Mojo followed by the No. 4 Grand Rapids Rise. The ensuing selections will come from the postseason teams, which are placed based on regular season finish, No. 5 Indy Ignite, No. 6 Orlando Valkyries, No. 7 Atlanta Vibe and No. 8 Omaha Supernovas.

Beginning with round two, teams in each group are moved according to regular season record into the best position available in which they have not previously selected. For the first group of teams, this means Columbus will choose first in the second round, followed by Dallas, Grand Rapids and San Diego. That round will be concluded with a selection from Orlando, then Indy, Omaha and Atlanta.

The third and fourth rounds will follow the same pattern. No team is permitted to choose from the same slot in its group more than once, barring any trades between teams. Teams will have up to eight minutes to make each selection.

Broadcast information and additional details on the 2025 MLV Draft will be announced soon.
