The Philippine National Volleyball Federation yesterday elected Frank Lao of Strong Group Athletics as new president in polls held at the Solaire Theater Southlinks Boardroom.
Also elected were Donn Capunan as vice president, Rommel Ng as treasurer, and former PNVF chief Ramon Suzara, Sienna Olaso, Francis Chad Salimbangon, Carmela Gamboa, Rustico Camangian, Mohamad Bernan, Jr. and Jonas Cabochan as members of the board.
Don Caringal was appointed secretary-general while two board seats are reserved for male and female athlete representatives.
Philippine Olympic Committee president Abraham Tolentino said they have relinquished the ‘caretaker’ status of the national team and returned it to the PNVF.
‘This is a committed team and I believe they could sustain the progress of volleyball,’ said Tolentino.
