If the Philippine National Volleyball Federation (PNVF) could have its way, and gathered big support from various sectors, the country’s hosting of the 2025 Men’s Volleyball World Championships will have all the bangs and whistles of a Taylor Swift concert.

MOLLY Shaw and Toni Rodriguez of the US completed a Cinderella run in the Volleyball World Beach Pro Tour Challenge Nuvali, turning back Noa Sonneville and Brecht Piersma of the Netherlands, 24-22, 17-21, 15-10, to claim the gold medal on Sunday in the City of Santa Rosa.

NATIONAL University hopes its historic grand slam run in the 2024 Shakey’s Super League will translate into a second straight title conquest in the UAAP early next year.

WITH the 2024 PVL All-Filipino Conference off to a roaring start, the PLDT High-Speed Hitters seek to show the entire league exactly what they’re made of — their unshakable “Pusong PLDT” — in what is sure to be a revenge tour for the hungry team. And rightfully so, the team has performed so far winning over the NXLED Chameleons, 3-1, and the Galeries TowerHighrisers, 3-0, in their first games.
