Career

2013–2014

Mylene Paat debuted as a rookie of Adamson Women's Volleyball team on the year 2013-2014 wherein the UAAP Season 76 is being held. It was a good start for her in the UAAP, as their team defeated the Lady Tamaraws of the Far Eastern University in the Fourth-seed play-offs. Due to the Lady Spikers of De La Salle University sweeping all the games in the preliminary round, they were given one of the two tickets into the finals. It was also decided that the 1 ticket left into the final games would be granted to the team who won the stepladder round. The team was then challenged by the Lady Eagles – a competitive team who had finished in 3rd place on the preliminary rounds, making a quick work of Adamson in 3 sets, leaving them behind and settling for a 4th-place finish.[6]

2014–2015

At the Lady Falcons, Patt was seen as one of the top performers of Adamson. As the UAAP Season 77 women's volleyball started, the Falcons first saw action in a challenging match against the champions De La Salle University Lady Spikers and against the runner-up team Lady Eagles; the Adamson Falcons couldn't see more adjustments as the Lady Spikers finished them in 3-1 and Lady Eagles in 3-0 sets.[clarification needed] The Lady Falcons then defeated the Lady Warriors of the University of the East in a 3 straight sets with Paat scoring 16 points. The Adamson Falcons went on to defeat the Lady Tigresses and Tamaraws before lossing to Lady Maroons and Bulldogs.[citation needed]

In the final elimination rankings, the Lady Falcons was trailing by 1 win against UST and FEU who settled for the fourth-place play-offs. The team, who had finished in 4th during the previous season, fell to the 7th place, disappointing their head coach during their last game.[citation needed]

2015–2016

The team first faced the Lady Tigresses of the University of Santo Tomas. The games lasted in 5 sets with Paat finishing the game with a good hit of the ball.

The team defeated only two teams in the first round: the Lady Tamaraws and Lady Warriors. The result caused Adamson's current coach Sherwin Meneses to make the decision to leave the team. In an interview, Meneses said that he hoped leaving would allow the team to learn and make the necessary adjustment, making him an inspiration for the team's future. The Lady Falcons finished winless in the second round of the preliminary and finished the season with a record of 3 wins and 11 losses, maintaining the 7th place that they had settled last season.

Paat planned join the U23 National Women's Volleyball team of the Philippines but her alma mater of Adamson University blocked her from joining, as the university would like to prevent their line-ups and specially key players from being injured.

2016–2017

Mylene Paat forewent her final playing year on Adamson as she had struggled to lead her team. It was then revealed on late September 2016 that the professional women's club team of Cignal HD Spikers recruited her on their team to boost up their morale on the upcoming PSL Super Liga Grand Prix which kicked off on October 8. The team then started their campaign on the league wherein they finished 3rd in the preliminary round. They then played against the Petron Blaze Spikers in the semi-finals round, but the team's performance fell short, making them settle for the 3rd place. The team then faced the team who finished 1st in the preliminary rounds – Philips Gold Lady Slammers, but also performed poorly.

The team ended the season in 4th-place – ranking higher against two teams who finished 5th and 6th respectively.

2017–2018

On the first day of the month of May 2017, Mylene Paat alongside teammate Janine Marciano represented Cignal on the 2017 PSL Beach Volleyball Challenge Cup. The duo finished 6th in the cup.

On July 1, 2017, current head coach of the Adamson Lady Falcons reported that Mylene Paat would be back for the last time on the UAAP to help the team on their campaign after the team finished last in the previous season. With the help of Mylene and the other seniors of the San Marcelino squad, they managed to finish 5th in the standings, one spot away from their final four contention.

On April 17, 2018, Mylene Paat returned to the PSL to join Cignal in their campaign in the semis. She and her team did not make it and ended up finishing 6th.[clarification needed]

In 2018, Paat returned to playing beach volleyball, representing Cignal on the 2018 PSL Beach Volleyball Challenge Cup. She was paired with a new partner, Raprap Aguilar. The duo also finish 6th, the same place as Mylene Paat and Janine's result on the previous cup last year.

After several trials on the national team, it was revealed on June 13 that Mylene Paat was selected as one of the Philippines women's national volleyball team's top 20 players. A day later, the national head coach of the team revealed the top 14 players who will banner the country at the 2018 Asian Women's Club Volleyball Championship.[5]

On July 7, Mylene along with the other members of the National Team played against Cocolife Asset Managers. It was a straight set win for the team with Paat playing on the opposite position for the whole game.[clarification needed]
