The Generika-Ayala LifeSavers is a professional women's volleyball team owned by Erikagen, Inc. (Generika Drugstore) in partnership with Ayala Corporation currently playing in the Philippine Super Liga (PSL).

History

Generika Drugstore first became involved in the PSL when it sponsored the Philippine Army Lady Troopers during the 2014 All-Filipino Conference, playing as the "Generika-Army Lady Troopers". For the following conference, the company formed its own team composed of the coaching staff and most of the players from the disbanded AirAsia Flying Spikers.^[1] The franchise did not participate during the 2015 season and remnants of the team went on to form the nucleus of the Shopinas.com Lady Clickers.

The company reactivated its PSL participation during the 2016 All-Filipino Conference with a new lineup.^[2]

Since 2017, the team was renamed "Generika-Ayala Lifesavers" with the entry of Ayala Corporation as the team's co-sponsor.^[3] Ayala Corporation, through its subsidiary Ayala Healthcare Holdings, Inc., acquired 50% of Erikagen, Inc. (Generika Drugstore) in July 2015.^[4]^[5]
