The Akari Power Chargers, more commonly known as the Akari Chargers, are a women's volleyball team competing in the Premier Volleyball League (PVL) in the Philippines. The team is owned by Akari Lighting & Technology Corporation.
History
The Akari Chargers was organized by Akari Lighting & Technology Corporation, announcing its official entry into the Premier Volleyball League as the 10th professional club team.[1] Akari's has been a longtime sponsor of the Adamson Lady Falcons collegiate volleyball team which clinched the 2019 Premier Volleyball League Collegiate Conference.[2]
Before the start of the 2022 reinforced conference, Akari announced that it tapped the Brazilian head coach of the Philippines women's national volleyball team, Jorge Souza de Brito to be its head coach.[3] The team debuted in the 2022 Reinforced Conference.
The team made its first finals appearance in the PVL during the 2024 Reinforced Conference,[4] where they settled for silver after losing 3–0 to the Creamline Cool Smashers.[5]
