SGA takes over Gerflor in PVL


Strong Group Athletics will take over the franchise of Gerflor in the Premier Volleyball League.

Gerflor will be the “sister team” of the Farm Fresh Foxies.

PVL President Richard Palou expressed his gratitude to SGA owner Frank Lao for the significant contributions to the league.

Palou stated, “We are truly thankful to Frank Lao and Strong Group Athletics for not only helping pay the salaries of the Gerflor Defenders last year but also for taking the bold step of starting a second team in the PVL. This shows their strong commitment to the development and success of volleyball in the Philippines.”

Frank Lao, owner of Strong Group Athletics, emphasized the logical decision to establish a second team in the PVL, stating, “Putting up a second team in the Premier Volleyball League is a no-brainer for us. The PVL has been a consistent source of entertainment for fans of all ages, and we are excited to contribute to the league in whatever way we can.

“Having a second team will lead to more opportunities for Filipino volleyball players and coaches. We believe in the potential of our athletes, and by providing additional platforms for them to showcase their talents, we are contributing to the growth of volleyball in the country.”

In addition to its involvement in the PVL, Strong Group Athletics proudly supports women’s volleyball teams at University of the East, University of the Philippines, College of Saint Benilde, and Colegio de San Juan de Letran.

SGA remains committed to promoting the sport at all levels and nurturing the development of future volleyball stars.
