Okay, volleyball fans, it’s official: the Cignal HD Spikers just got a MAJOR upgrade. The team has signed none other than Greek powerhouse outside hitter Eva Chantava, and honestly… we’re living for it.

If her name sounds familiar, that’s because Chantava made waves in the Philippines earlier this year during the AVC Women’s Champions League with Nakhon Ratchasima QminC VC. Yup, that’s when she showed off her all-around game and helped her Thai squad bag a bronze medal finish at Philsports Arena—and trust me, she left quite an impression on the Filipino volleyball community.

Cignal went all out on their socials to hype up the signing, calling Chantava a proven winner with MVPs and international titles under her belt. And they weren’t exaggerating. At 34 years old, this outside hitter has literally played everywhere—Italy, Turkey, Thailand, Azerbaijan, Romania, Brazil, Indonesia, and Japan. That’s like the ultimate volleyball passport, right? Two decades of experience means she’s seen it all and knows how to deliver in high-pressure moments.

But here’s the real tea: Chantava isn’t just about stats and medals. She brings crazy energy to the court—something Cignal’s been needing as they gear up for another tough Reinforced Conference. Imagine her firepower syncing with Erika Santos, fresh off her PVL On Tour MVP run, and the ever-reliable leadership of Vanie Gandler. Talk about a dream trio that can seriously shake up the competition.

With the Reinforced Conference always being a fan-favorite (because let’s be real, imports take the game to another level), this signing sends a clear message: Cignal means business.

Now the question is, how fast will Chantava adjust to the Spikers’ system? If her past stints abroad are any indication, she’s more than capable of fitting right in and giving fans highlight after highlight. And honestly, we can’t wait to see her first explosive kill in a Cignal jersey.

So mark your calendars, Spikers Nation. The Reinforced Conference is about to get lit, and with Eva Chantava in the mix, Cignal just might be the squad to watch.
