The 2013 CIS Women's Volleyball Championship was held February 28, 2013 to March 2, 2013, in Sherbrooke, Quebec, to determine a national champion for the 2012–13 CIS women's volleyball season.[1] The tournament was played at the Univestrie Pavilion at the Université de Sherbrooke.[2] It was the second time that Sherbrooke had hosted the tournament with the first time occurring in 1988.[2]
The gold medal match featured a rematch of the previous year's final, which had not occurred since the 1995 and 1996 games between the Pandas and the Rouge et Or.[3] In this match, the top-seeded UBC Thunderbirds won their sixth consecutive national championship in their 3–0 match victory over the Alberta Pandas.[1] This tied the record for consecutive national championships with the Winnipeg Wesmen (1983-1988) and Alberta Pandas (1995-2000).[1] The Thunderbirds finished the season on a 25-game winning streak and the gold medal win was the program's CIS-leading 10th national championship.[1]
