BELLA Belen has made it official.
The No. 1 pick of the 2025 PVL Rookie Draft put pen to paper on a multi-year contract with the Capital1 Solar Spikers.
Her talent agency VMG Asia shared photos of Belen’s contract signing with her new PVL team on Wednesday.

While she’s been a fixture on the Capital1 sidelines as of late, Belen remains barred from playing in the PVL along with the rest of her pro Alas Pilipinas teammates.
The ongoing FIVB national team calendar will run until Oct. 15.
By then, the next PVL conference would have either started or near its yet-to-be determined launch date.
Weeks before the draft, the PVL increased the base salary of the top four overall draft picks by 10 percent.
This now entails a minimum starting salary of P165,000 for Belen as the top pick in this year’s draft.
The amount is a minimum number rather than a maximum since the league is implementing a ‘salary scale’ rather than a salary cap.
PVL teams will then hold the sole discretion on whether to stick to the minimum amount or raise the salary through negotiations.
