Alas Pilipinas men vie for AVC Men's Nations Cup title

The Philippine men's volleyball team, Alas Pilipinas, is set to compete in the 2025 Asian Volleyball Confederation (AVC) Men's Nations Cup in Manama, Bahrain.

Alas Pilipinas men open their campaign in the continental championship on Tuesday, June 17, against Pakistan, the runner-up from the previous year's tournament.

They will also face Chinese Taipei on Wednesday, June 18.

The team aims to leverage their recent success from the Alas Pilipinas Invitationals, where they achieved a three-game sweep against visiting teams.

Key players Louie Ramirez and Marck Espejo were instrumental in their victories during the invitationals.

This campaign is also part of Alas men's buildup for the FIVB Volleyball Men's World Championship in September.

This follows a 10th-place finish in the 2024 Challenge Cup for the men's team.
