Major League Volleyball club San Diego Mojo “will not return for the 2027 season” after it competes in the league’s playoffs this year. Team owner Gary Jacobs said in a statement that he “wanted the Mojo to take the 2027 season off while building a long-term plan for the franchise,” but that “the league believes a different direction is required.” The team also said MLV “remains committed to San Diego” and will “lead the effort to identify potential new investors” in the club. The Mojo “will play one final home match” on Thursday night before heading to Dallas for the MLV playoffs. The club is “offering free tickets to fans who want to attend Thursday’s match at Viejas Arena.” Fans “can claim up to eight per person” by visiting the team’s social media profiles and clicking the attached link (SAN DIEGO UNION-TRIBUNE, 4/28).
