PVL remains a dozen-big league
MANILA, Philippines — Despite the exit of F2 Logistics, the Premier Volleyball League will still showcase a 12-team cast for the All-Filipino Conference that unwraps Feb. 20 (originally set Feb. 17) at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.
“We’ll have 12 teams,” said PVL president Ricky Palou.
The Creamline Cool Smashers have remained the team to beat after topping two AFC editions last year while ending up as runners-up in the Reinforced Conferences in between the two diadems.
Also seeing action are Choco Mucho, PLDT, Cignal, Chery Tiggo, Petro Gazz, Akari, Nxled, Galeries Tower, Farm Fresh, Strong Group Athletics and a still unidentified 12th squad, which will fill up the slot vacated by the defunct Cargo Movers team.
Apart from the AFC, the league will also stage a Reinforced Conference, which will be combined with the Invitational Conference, in the middle of the year.
That will be the second and last conference the PVL will stage as it’s now leaning towards holding two conferences a season, departing from its traditional three conferences.
