Katherine Bell is set to suit up for the Chery Tiggo Crossovers in the upcoming 2024 PVL Reinforced Conference.
One of the most dominant reinforcements to ever set foot in the Philippines is back to wreak havoc once again.
Katherine Bell is set to suit up for the Chery Tiggo Crossovers in the upcoming 2024 PVL Reinforced Conference, which kicks off in July.
The club team welcomed the well-traveled winger on Wednesday night, June 12.
“I’m so excited to announce that I’m finally playing back in the Philippines for Chery Tiggo!” shared Bell.
The 31-year-old last played in the local scene for the Petron Blaze Spikers in the Philippine Superliga, where she won two titles back in the 2018 and 2019 editions of the Grand Prix.
Bell last saw action in the country in 2020, playing a game for Petron before the season was shelved due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
“I’ve been looking forward to come back to Manila for a very long time now, about four years since COVID, and I cannot be more excited and be happy to be back here for the fans, playing for Chery,” she shared.
Bell's return is highly anticipated and is expected to provide a significant boost to the offensive arsenal of the Crossovers.
“For the fans that don’t know me, I bring a lot! I bring energy, I bring a little sass, and definitely I bring a winning mentality. I’m excited to be able to come back here and perform to the best of my ability, and hopefully help Chery Tiggo get to the top,” she said.
The Crossovers already boast an eclectic mix of talented Filipina spikers, led by Eya Laure. With Bell joining the ranks, the team's capabilities are set to reach new heights.
“Even though I’m new to Chery Tiggo, I’m fortunate enough to be playing with (the likes of) Aby (Maraño). There’s a few players as well that I’m excited to see, my old players from my old team. Coming to Chery Tiggo, I’m really excited just to be here,” Bell said.
“To the fans, I am so ecstatic to be back playing here for you guys. Hope you guys come out, watch the games and cheer us on. Go, Chery Tiggo!”
