The 2014 CIS Women's Volleyball Championship was held February 28, 2014 to March 2, 2014, in Regina, Saskatchewan, to determine a national champion for the 2013–14 CIS women's volleyball season.[1][2] The tournament was played at the Centre for Kinesiology, Health & Sport (CKHS) at the University of Regina.[3] It was the first time that the University of Regina had hosted the tournament.[1]

The second-seeded Manitoba Bisons defeated the six-time defending champion and top-seeded UBC Thunderbirds in the gold-medal match as they won the seventh title in program history.[2] The Bisons swept all three of their opponents during this tournament and won their first championship since 2002.[2] With the loss, the Thunderbirds were unable to win a record-breaking seventh consecutive championship as they finished tied with the Winnipeg Wesmen (1983-1988) and Alberta Pandas (1995-2000) with six straight wins from 2008 to 2013.[3]
