Volleyball Group Announces New 13-Person Board, Elections Ahead

Title: Volleyball in the Philippines: A Fresh Start as PNVF Officials Resign and Elect a New Board In a significant development for Philippine volleyball, PNVF officials are stepping down and recognizing the importance of unity for the sport. On Monday, the Philippine National Volleyball Federation (PNVF) leaders, including Tonyboy Liao, Ricky Palou, Sherwin Malonzo, Fr. Vic Calvo, Jerry Yee, and representatives from various clubs, leagues, and stakeholders, gathered at the Solaire Resort in Parañaque for a vital meeting. During the meeting, it was announced that the Philippine Olympic Committee (POC) president Ramon Villar met with the group, but he was not present at the meeting due to being near the area. Villar addressed the importance of establishing a revamped 13-member PNVF board, including athlete representatives from all major leagues such as UAAP and NCAA. This step aims to support the national team's call and ensure inclusivity within the sporting community. The position of chairman was abolished, and the secretary-general role will be appointed by the president of the organization, who will be voted upon in the future elections. The PNVF officials will now focus on fostering unity within the volleyball scene in the Philippines, marking a new chapter for the sport. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Title: PNVF Officials Resign to Lead Volleyball in the Philippines on a Fresh Pathway The Philippine National Volleyball Federation (PNVF) leaders, including Tonyboy Liao, Ricky Palou, Sherwin Malonzo, Fr.
