Cignal HD Spikers (women)

2013–2016: Early years

The team was established in 2013 as the Cignal HD Spikers, they competed in the Philippine Super Liga (PSL) as one of the league's founding teams. They went on to appear in the finals of their first two conferences the 2013 Invitational Conference and Grand Prix but lost to the Philippine Army Lady Troopers on both occasions.^[1] In the Invitational, Venus Bernal won the inaugural PSL Most Valuable Player award. For the next three years, Cignal went through a series of underwhelming performances, not winning a single podium.

2017–2020: Later years in the PSL

The team saw more success during their later years in the PSL. In the 2017 Invitational Cup, with the likes of Jovelyn Gonzaga, Rachel Daquis, and Chie Saet, the HD Spikers finished as runners-up in the final round, but were declared co-champions of the conference. It is the team's first and only title in its history.^[2] The team then reached the podium four more times through 2019. In the 2019 All-Filipino Conference, Cignal upset the first seed Petron Blaze Spikers in two matches, advancing them to the finals series for the first time since 2013. They were swept by the F2 Logistics Cargo Movers in the best-of-three series. Throughout their PSL tenure, Cignal accrued one title, three runner-up finishes, and four bronze-medal finishes for a total of eight podiums.^[3]

2021–2024: Move to the PVL

On February 4, 2021, the HD Spikers and its sister team, the PLDT Home Fibr Hitters, moved to the Premier Volleyball League, which had turned professional in November 2020. The move coincided with Cignal TV acquiring the broadcast rights to the PVL.^[4] After finishing 10th in their first PVL conference, the 2021 Open Conference, the HD Spikers rebuilt with the acquisitions of Frances Molina and Ria Meneses from the Petro Gazz Angels, and Gel Cayuna from the Perlas Spikers. Alongside the later addition of Jackie Acuña, the team consistently finished in the podium from 2022 to 2024, doing so in seven out of the nine conferences held in that timespan. This included two finals appearances, the first came in the 2022 Reinforced Conference against Petro Gazz where they were swept in two matches. The second came against the Grand Slam-seeking Creamline Cool Smashers in the 2024 Invitational Conference. Cignal led 2–1 in the lone championship match, but lost the next two sets, falling short of their first solo title and stopping Creamline's feat.

2024–2026: Rebuild and leave of absence

After the 2024 Invitational, the team began to rebuild its roster with new acquisitions and key players transferring to other teams in the coming conferences. During the rebuild, Cignal didn't finish in the podium throughout 2025. The rebuild also presented a time of change for the franchise. The team renamed for the first time, going by the Cignal Super Spikers since October 9, 2025.^[5] Additionally, their men's team announced on January 30, 2026 that they would be taking a leave of absence from Spikers' Turf.^[6][7] They finished as runners-up.^[8]

Throughout the rebuild, the team was led by a young core. Ishie Lalongisip won the Rookie of the Conference in the 2024–25 All-Filipino and Erika Santos (acquired by Cignal in 2025) won Most Valuable Player in the 2025 PVL on Tour. The end of the rebuild saw Vanie Gandler step up in the 2026 All-Filipino Conference, leading the team to their first podium and first finals appearance in over a year, eventually winning MVP honors. However, it wasn't enough to withstand their late rivals in Creamline, who swept the Super Spikers in the finals.

On April 28, 2026, the Super Spikers women's team took a leave of absence from club volleyball after thirteen years of operation and six years in the PVL. The team's statement mentions that the decision came following a "careful review of Cignal's strategic direction", a similar reason for the men's team's LOA.^[9] At the time of their leave, Cignal finished as runners-up three times and as bronze medalists five times.^[10] All in all, the team finished a total of sixteen podium finished across both the PSL and PVL.
