New PVL team Capital1 schedules tryouts

MANILA, Philippines – Capital1 Solar Energy, determined to make heads turn in the coming Premier Volleyball League (PVL), will hold a two-day tryout at the San Sebastian College-Recoletos gym starting Wednesday.

Multi-titled SSC-R coach Roger Gorayeb, tasked by sisters Milka and Mandy Romero to handle the Power Spikers, will supervise the tryouts with the help of his able assistants.

Close to 100 players from various clubs, colleges and universities have signified to join the tryouts — all looking forward to see action in the country’s hottest sporting league and be part of the “newest kid on the block.”

Both Milka and Mandy are already thrilled in their initial foray in the sporting world although both are resigned to the idea that they have to go through the proverbial eye of the needle before beating the league giants.

Milka was a former co-captain of the Ateneo football team, while Mandy, graduated Magna Cum Laude at Georgetown University in Washington DC, was a Muay Thai practitioner.
