POC puts PNVF under suspension
MANILA, Philippines — The Philippine Olympic Committee (POC) suspended the Philippine National Volleyball Federation (PNVF) during its Executive Board meeting early this week, POC president Abraham “Bambol” Tolentino announced yesterday.
“The suspension comes automatically from the international federation’s suspension of its national federation,” said Tolentino, who said the POC suspension was unanimously voted upon during the board meeting held last Monday.
The International Volleyball Federation, or FIVB, suspended the PNVF effective last May 29, a decision imposed pursuant to Article 13.1.1 of its Disciplinary Regulations which are currently under investigation by the independent FIVB Ethics Panel.
The FIVB sanction covers serious governance concerns and multiple alleged violations by the country’s volleyball governing body.
