Current teams

Amihan Pilipinas (PVF)

On September 2014, the Philippine Volleyball Federation (PVF) held tryouts for the national women's and men's volleyball teams. On October 2014, the PVF announced the names of the eighteen players chosen to comprise the national training pool (known as Amihan Pilipinas).[2] From the pool, 14 will be selected (12 main players and 2 reserve players) to compose the final team. Amihan Pilipinas and its male counterpart, Bagwis Pilipinas, are sponsored by the Philippine Long Distance Telephone Company. The team was set to represent the Philippines in international events of 2015, until a power struggle ensued resulting in the PVF losing its accreditation from the Philippine Olympic Committee (POC) and the FIVB as the national sports federation for volleyball.[3][4]

2015 Southeast Asian Games

In April 15, 2015, Larong Volleyball sa Pilipinas (LVPI) released a provisional list[11][12] of the names chosen for the team that will compete in the 2015 Southeast Asian Games (SEA Games) which will be held in Singapore from June 5 to 16, 2015. LVPI president Joey Romasanta, however, made it clear the list is still subject to change as it was made to merely comply with the submission of the entry-by-name list imposed by SEA Games organizers. Romasanta also said some of the players have yet to attend practices, most notably those associated with the Amihan group of the Philippine Volleyball Federation (PVF), the former governing body for volleyball which has since been stripped of recognition both by the POC and the AVC.
