MANILA, Philippines – PVL action resumes with its second tournament of the season as the Invitational Conference kicks off on Tuesday, June 27, with 11 local teams vying for the crown.

The Creamline Cool Smashers have a huge target on their backs after ruling the season-opening All-Filipino Conference, where they dispatched the F2 Logistics Cargo Movers in the semifinals and Petro Gazz Angels in the finals.

Also contending for the championship are the Choco Mucho Flying Titans, Cignal HD Spikers, PLDT High Speed Hitters, Chery Tiggo Crossovers, and Akari Chargers.

New squads Farm Fresh Foxies and Quezon City Gerflor Defenders look to make a splash in their debut conference, while the Foton Tornadoes return to the PVL since they got rebranded to Chery Tiggo in 2020.

Here are ways to watch the PVL:

Television

As the official PVL broadcaster, One Sports will air the games live on free television. One Sports+ will carry the matches live on cable subscription Cignal TV as well.

Online

One Sports and One Sports+ can also be accessed on Cignal Play through its website and mobile application, although viewers need to pay at least P75 a month since they are listed as premium channels.

Another way for PVL fans to catch the games is through Pilipinas Live, a mobile application launched by Cignal TV that features multiple screen viewing.

Pilipinas Live, which will also broadcast the FIBA World Cup in August, offers an introductory price of P99 a month. – Rappler.com
