    NEWLY crowned Premier Volleyball League Invitational Conference champion Creamline has agreed to represent the Philippines in the Asian Women's Volleyball Cup, PVL president Ricky Palou confirmed on Sunday.

    The five-time league champions will step in to fly the flag for the hosts after the Philippine National Volleyball Federation released the 12 players from National University from the national squad after a squabble a week ago.

    The Philippines will host the tournament from August 21 to 29 at the PhilSports Arena in Pasig City.

    "I'm very excited for everyone lalo na sa team namin kasi not all were exposed and nabigyan ng opportunity to play for the national team," she said. "And now we're given this opportunity as a club team and we're gladly [na] tatanggapin yon and really try to maximize everything and learn from it as a team and individuals."
