FOLLOWING the pronouncement of National University Lady Bulldogs and San Sebastian College Lady Stags mentor Roger Gorayeb of not allowing his players to join the national tryouts, the PH team organizers have expressed they are willing to make some adjustments.

A Larong Volleyball sa Pilipinas, Inc. (LVPI) member revealed to the Buzzer Beater that they are considering special accommodationfor Gorayebs players namely Jaja Santiago, Jasmine Nabor and Gretchel Soltones to be able to join to the national team.

The Francis Vicente-mentored national squad held a three-day tryout at the Arellano University Gym in Taft Avenue, Pasay City that started on Saturday.

Coach Francis is willing to adjust naman dun sa mga player ng NU at San Sebastian gustong sumali pero nag aalangan dahil sa UAAP at NCAA, magpakita lang sila dun sa tryout at magpalista,said the official who refused to be named.

Syempre, as much as possible, we want to assemble the best team possible kaya nga handa kaming mag-adjust basta makapag commit yung mga players na gustong lumaro para sa bayan,he added.

Playing for the national team is a source of pride, not only for themselves, but also for their friends, families and schools. Its a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I hope they grab it,he said.

Unlike Gorayeb, University of Santo Tomas mentor Emilio Reyes and De La Salle University Lady SpikersRamil de Jesus have made their players available for the national team tryouts.

Sa pagkakaalam ko siya (Gorayeb) lang ang may opposition. Yung ibang coaches from UAAP and NCAA are more than willing to let their players join the national tryouts,said the LVPI official.

Ngayon na nag adjust na ang LVPI at kung hindi pa rin niya payagan ang mga players niya na sumipot man lang sa tryouts ay kayo na ang bahalang humusga,concluded the source.
