The Shakey's V-League 10th Season: 1st Conference is the eighteenth conference of Shakey's V-League, a collegiate women's volleyball league in the Philippines founded in 2004. The opening ceremonies was held on April 7, 2013 with the first doubleheader of volleyball games at the Filoil Flying V Arena in San Juan. There are three new teams who are participating in this season, they are the Arellano University Lady Chiefs, De La Salle University - Dasmariñas Lady Patriots, and the University of San Carlos Lady Warriors. This three new teams will face the seven current participating teams like ADMU, AdU, UST, NU, SSC-R, UPHSD and CSJL.

At the end of the elimination round, the Lady Eagles of the Ateneo de Manila University and the Lady Bulldogs of the National University emerged on the top of standings in their respective group via complete sweep 4–0. Meanwhile, the Letran Lady Knights Collegio de San Juan de Letran of Group A and the Lady Warriors of the University of San Carlos of Group B finish winless and bid their goodbye in the conference as both teams were eliminated for their hope to enter the quarterfinal round.

The games become intense on the Quarterfinals wherein ADMU, UST, NU and AdU became the Final 4 teams to enter the Semifinals. NU and ADMU became victorious on their assignments, and became the finalists for the title, leaving AdU and UST battling for the bronze. This is NU's first Finals appearance, and still they are searching for their first ever championship of the League, while ADMU is looking for a 3-peat, as they are the 1st conference's champions of Seasons 8 and 9.

Due to vastly increase of volleyball fans and spectators, the management decided to look for more venues that can accommodate large number of crowd. This is the first time that the League held its games on the state of the art Mall of Asia Arena, and in the iconic Philsports Arena during Semifinals, Battle for 3rd, and Championship matches.

On May 26, 2013 (Game 2 of the Finals and Battle for 3rd), Shakey's V-League held its first live telecast on TV via GMA News TV. It continued to air live until the Game 3 of the series (Finals and Battle for 3rd). This is also the league's first time to have Game 3 matches on both Finals and Battle for 3rd. NU Lady Bulldogs snatched their first ever championship over ADMU Lady Eagles, while the UST Tigresses overcome AdU Lady Falcons for the Bronze.
