After playing in the fourth tier level of the Italian league, Serie B2, for several years, Pallavolo Pinerolo won the Serie B2 playoff final in 2012 and was promoted to Serie B1.[1][2] There, Pallovolo Pinerolo played for six seasons until the club was promoted to Serie A2 in 2018 by winning pool A in the 2017–2018 season of Serie B1.[3][4]
In the 2021–2022 season of Serie A2, the club finished the regular season in pool B in first place and was qualified for the playoff finals.[5] In the finals, Pallavolo Pinerolo defeated Volley Millenium Brescia by three matches to one and for the first time in the club's history it was promoted to Serie A1.[6][7]
In the 2023–2024 season of Serie A1, Pallavolo Pinerolo finished the regular season in sixth place and made its debut in the championship playoffs.[8] In April 2025, the club changed its brand name from Union Volley Pinerolo to Monviso Volley.[9]
