The competition was first contested in 1991 in Brazil. It was not held between 1995 and 2009, but since 2010, the competition has been held every year, and has been hosted by Qatar, Switzerland, the Philippines and Japan.

The current format of the tournament involves eight teams competing for the title at venues within the host nation over a period of about one week; the winners of that year's AVC Club Volleyball Championship (Asia), African Clubs Championship (Africa), Women's South American Volleyball Club Championship (South America) and CEV Women's Champions League (Europe), along with the host city's team and a nominated team from North America. The number of teams is increased through wild card invitees.

The current champions are Turkey's Vakıfbank İstanbul, who defeated Brazil's Minas Tênis Clube 3–0 in the final of the 2018 edition, to win their third title in the competition. Turkish teams have been the most successful, with six titles in total.[2]

MVP by edition
gollark: Oh no. My RSS feed thing was broken today due to some random configuration changes and now I am behind by 20 things somehow?
gollark: To be hypercontrarian, they might be being overcautious or something.
gollark: However, achieving goals is somewhat more complex than coming up with nice-sounding ones.
gollark: I don't disagree.
gollark: I'm pretty sure you need more than a good-sounding goal to... be successful at things?
