The Philippines women's national volleyball team represents the Philippines in international volleyball competitions and friendly matches, governed by Philippine National Volleyball Federation since 2021.

Philippines' highest achievement was they qualified and competed at the FIVB Volleyball Women's World Championship in 1974 edition, where they finished at 18th place.

History[edit]

The Philippine national team was formerly organized and sanctioned by the Philippine Volleyball Federation (PVF), originally known as the Philippine Amateur Athletic Federation (PAVA) from 1961 to 2003.[1] The team was a regional powerhouse in Southeast Asia having won gold medals at the 1977, 1979, 1981, 1985, 1987 and 1993 editions of the Southeast Asian Games.[2] The Philippines also participated at its first and only FIVB Volleyball World Championship in 1974.[3]

The national team had its last gold medal at the Southeast Asian Games finish under Russian-Latvian head coach Staņislavs Lugailo, who was part of the Soviet Union men's national team that won gold at the 1964 Tokyo Olympics, was hired to lead the team in 1990. He guided the team to its bronze medal finish at the 1991 Southeast Asian Games. The national team had a training camp in Japan in 1992 where it played games against Japanese volleyball clubs. Lyugailo later led the national team to win a gold medal at the Southeast Asian Games in 1993 defeating defending champions Thailand in the final. Thailand would later defeat the Philippines in the next edition in 1995 in the gold medal match. The Philippines fail to duplicate its gold medal games for the next editions of the Southeast Asian Games with Thailand establishing dominance in women's volleyball in the region.[4][5][6][7]

The Philippine national team did not see international play after the 2005 edition of the Southeast Asian Games and the Asian Championships. The Philippines won a bronze medal at the 2005 Southeast Asian Games. They would make a comeback at the Asian Championships in 2013 and at the Southeast Asian Games in 2015 respectively.[8][9][10]

In 2014, the PVF lost recognition of the Philippine Olympic Committee after a leadership crisis.[11] The Fédération Internationale de Volleyball (FIVB) recognized the Larong Volleyball sa Pilipinas, Inc. (LVPI) as its provisional member in 2015 effectively taking over the PVF's mandate.[12] The LVPI was allowed to send and organize national volleyball teams, including the women's team to FIVB tournaments for the next few years.[13]

After failing to get a podium finish at the 2015 Southeast Asian Games, it was decided that the national team coached by Roger Gorayeb will be disbanded.[14] However it is later decided that Gorayeb will remain coach of the national team which participated in another tournament, the 2015 VTV International Women's Volleyball Cup.[15][16] The team finish last out of six teams and was without many of its players that played in the Southeast Asian Games.[17]

In 2021, the Philippine National Volleyball Federation (PNVF) was formed[18] and was given full FIVB membership replacing the LVPI as the volleyball federation for volleyball in the Philippines.[19]

The Philippines secured their first ever podium finish in an AVC tournament when they finished as third placers in the 2024 Asian Women's Volleyball Challenge Cup which was hosted in Manila.[20]

FIVB Senior World Ranking[edit]

The new calculation method of the FIVB Senior World Rankings started on January 1, 2019, granted all nations automatic world ranking (WR) 100 points, in addition to the score from the previous FIVB World Ranking. The new calculation provides that any inactive nation every January 1 will lose 50 WR points for the next year. An inactive team reaching a WR score of less than 20 WR points will be removed from the ranking list.[24] Due to inactivity or non-participation in annual FIVB-sanctioned events since 2019, the Philippines lost 100 WR points and was removed from the world rankings. The Philippine women's national volleyball team became active again in an FIVB-sanctioned event during the 2023 Asian Women's Volleyball Challenge Cup, hence, their reinstatement in the world rankings with 50 WR points.
