The Perlas Spikers welcomes the Ateneo standout in their social media accounts on Thursday evening.
“This is her next. Welcome to the Perlas Spikers, Jules Samonte,” the team wrote.
“Your fire and passion will surely bring so much energy to the team. Thank you for embarking on this (volleyball) journey with us. Your coaches and teammates are excited to work with you.”
The team also posted a TikTok video of Samonte joining her new teammates Nicole Tiamzon, Mich Morente, Jho Maraguinot, Roma Doromal, Heather Guino-o and Cherilyn Sindayen in a beach.
