May age limit po ba ang guest players? Kasi parang nagulat ako na MIc2x Laborte wasn't able to play last conference, so I just assumed na she's too old. Pero Lyceum was able to get Det Enriquez, whom I recall is 34 at that time. Hmmm... I'm not sure if there is an age-limit on guest players... Siguro last time, laya hindi nakapaglaro si MicMic because ADMU already has Kesinee at isang guest player ang pwede last conference... Okay lang naman na di siya naging guest player dahil hanggang ngayon naman nasa coaching staff pa siya ng ADMU... Btw, Si Tetet Enriquez was not 34 that time, 31 lang naman

It is half confirmed that Jang Bualee and Nok Kesinee will play for Ateneo. I only asked their players. I have yet to ask the coach and management. .....WHO WILL BE THE COACH OF ATENEO THIS SEASONS SHAKEYS V-LEAGUE. . . .

VLEAGUE FEVER SPREADING RAPIDLY
by: Miles Dy of Spikeithard.com
The upcoming Shakey’s V-League is probably the most talked-about conference in the entirety of the league. V-League Season 5 is said to open on March 30, 2008. Venue will be at The Arena, San Juan. Opening games will be between the defending champs University of Santo Tomas and Ateneo de Manila University. These two teams seem to have the most number of fans and followers.
(NOTE: The following info are mostly just assumptions and/or rumors from very reliable sources. This is NOT the final list of guest players.)
Invitations, Assumptions, and Rumors:
University of Santo Tomas. They will most likely get Suzanne Roces and Rubie de Leon. UST is in dire need of a middle blocker since in the open area, they already have Venus Bernal and Angelli Tabaquero who are both able attackers and hard hitters. Suzanne Roces has proven herself as a good middle blocker for the Tigresses. She has been averaging more than 15 points per game last conference and has been very good with quick and running attacks. Veteran setting will be something they need right now in the person of Rubie de Leon since Rhea Dimaculangan only has the touch in middle area while open area for Denise Tan, unlike Rubie who possess both.
Lyceum of the Philippines. Their key to winning in the 1st conference last season is their setter. Christina Salak will probably play again for the Lady Pirates together with former guest player Concepcion Legaspi. The link of this team will be still somewhat solid having one of the most sensational players in Sherrillyn Carrillo, Beverly Boto and Jane Jarin. Together with these, three, and with their excellent floor defense, the Muralla-based spikers are highly expected to make it to the Semis.
Adamson. The Falcons have been inviting former guest player Nerissa Bautista and Dahlia Cruz as guest players. It is but fitting to actually get these two. No offense to Jill Gustillo and Jacqueline So, but Nerissa Bautista and Angela Benting will make a good opposition in the open area while the smartness of Rissa Jane Laguilles plus the power of Dahlia Cruz combined will be something to watch out for. Of course, how could I forget? Their relentless floor defense will be a key to winning of course.
De La Salle Taft or St. Benilde? The Taft-based La Salle Lady Archers are still unsure if they will join this season. La Salle’s appealing to the board of members of the league to allow veterans Manilla Santos and Charleen Cruz to play in the V-League as regular players and not as Guest Players since they are still students of La Salle and will still play for next year’s UAAP Women’s Volleyball Tournament. They also stated that the girls just took a leave of absence from the team to focus on their studies that’s why they think that the two girls should still be allowed to play. But, if ever they will really join, they are rumored to get veteran setter Relea Ferina Saet and possibly a Thai or local Open Spiker. If they won’t join by the way, sister school St. Benilde will be the one who will play in the coming V-League.
Far Eastern University. The UAAP Season 70 Women’s Volleyball champs possess a strong line-up with strong collegiate players and two guest players who have very high credentials. The first one is Michelle Carolino who is a veteran in the Open Area. Michelle Carolino has been a V-League MVP already and played as guest player for La Salle and alma mater Letran. Rumored to join forces with the Lady Tams is Thai import Sanorseang Areerat, who incidentally played also for La Salle last season. Sanorseang Areerat was awarded Best Blocker way back in her collegiate days in Thailand. It is quite practical to choose an Open and Middle since FEU is in dire need of a tall and middle hitter, not to take anything away from Josephine Cafranca and Mecaila Irish May Morada who by the way did very well in the UAAP Championship Series. Michelle Carolino will be a good replacement for rookie Shaira Gonzalez. Shaira Gonzalez is good but Michelle Carolino has proven herself in this area and can kill balls anytime she wants. FEU will be one of the teams to beat this coming V-League who really poses a deep bench and good floor defense.
San Sebastian College. San Sebastian’s bid will probably be the one of the two awaited bids this coming V-League. Two Thais namely Jindarat Kanchana and Suphap Phongthong are rumored guest players who will boost up the spirits of the Gold and Red squad. Jindarat Kanchana has played for La Salle and Ateneo in the past conferences. Suphap Phongthong meanwhile is a National Team player from Thailand and is one of the most feared middle blockers in their country. Laurence Anne Latigay and Jindarat Kanchana will be good combos in the Open Area for the Lady Stags. Same goes for Suphap Phongthong and Rysabelle Devanadera who can be at link with each other as Middle Blockers for the team. Jacqueline Mondejar should notbe her inconsistent self this time in the utility position, but more will be asked for her this time as she will carry on as team captain of the team. Same goes for Charisse Ancheta, who has a big responsibility for giving sets to these players.
Ateneo de Manila. The most hyped team right now is of course none other than the Ateneo Lady Eagles. San Sebastian may have gotten Jindarat Kanchana and Suphap Phongthong as guest players, but the girls from Katipunan will not be left behind as they are rumored also to get two Thais. Two Thais which are familiar to all of us V-League loyalists. Lithawat Kesinee and Jaroensri Bualee is probably the fiercest duo of guest players this coming conference. Lithawat Kesinee is the Best Blocker and MVP in the 2nd conference last season while Jaroensri Bualee meanwhile is the Best Attacker and MVP in the 1st conference last season. Add tot that, the line-up will be spiced up by UAAP Best Scorer Maria Rosario Soriano and UAAP Rookie of the Year Maria Carmina Denise Acevedo. It is but possible also to have the tall but mean blocker Crystal Ballentyne as one of the players to watch out for Ateneo this coming V-League.
More teams? There may be additional teams for the upcoming V-League as it gets bigger and better. Yup, you heard it right, the V-League might think about extending the league to 10 teams total. University of the Philippines is one of the teams rumored to join as well as founder Colegio de San Juan de Letran.

I also heard that guest teams (at least four of them) will be invited to spice up the league. Right now, inaayos na ang lahat para masiguro na matuloy ang plan nato.

Sabi ng friend ko na tiga-Adu, si Ann Dave at Nerissa Bautista daw ang nagtretraining sa Adamson ngayon. Malamang sila ang magguest player. I think Ann Dave will be in the middle position kasi nung nakita siya ng friend ko sa training ng LAdy Falcons, running hits daw ang ginagawa ni Ann.
Si Cherry naman daw.. inaantay pa ,. depende daw kay Cherry kung maglalaro siya.

I have yet to ask the coach and management. .....WHO WILL BE THE COACH OF ATENEO THIS SEASONS SHAKEYS V-LEAGUE. . . . MICMIC LABORTE will be the Head Coach of ADMU in the Shakey's V-League, with SSC-R's Roger Gorayeb as Consultant... That means na for sure MicMic won't be a guest player... Next UAAP Season, SSC-R's Roger Gorayeb will be the ADMU's Head Coach as Ronald Dulay moves to UP...

Sayang naman kung hindi makakapaglaro si Mic2x....Pero wala namang rule sa VLeague against playing coaches di ba? Eh, si Jaworski nga nagplaying coach sa Ginebra dati....Mas maganda nga yun eh para solid talaga ang leadership sa court, di ba?
