History
The Cavite 'Tol Patriots was formed around 2024 as a representative team for Cavite in the newly formed Women's Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League (WMPBL) and is owned by Senator Francis "Tol" Tolentino.[1][2][3] Tolentino also sponsors the WMPBL itself along with Manny Pacquiao and the MPBL Partylist.[4] The first try-outs for the 'Tol Patriots was held in November 2024 in Tagaytay led by coach Norman Manguinao and coach Angelica Valera of Cavite State University.[1]
At the 2025 WMPBL Invitational Tournament, the Patriots advanced to the quarterfinals as the fourth seeded team. However they got eliminated by Discovery Perlas which held a twice-to-beat advantage.[5][6]
They played at the 2025 regular season under the newly professionalized WMPBL as the Tagaytay–Tol Patriots.[7][8]
