The Capital1 Solar Spikers made their first moves in the 2026 PVL offseason after announcing the signings of Shaya Adorador, Jasmine Nabor, Ezra Madrigal, and Rachel Jorvina on Tuesday, January 6.

Adorador, the most notable of the four, brings much-needed firepower and versatility on the wings, giving the Solar Spikers another scoring option to complement young superstars Bella Belen and Leila Cruz.

Nabor, one of the league’s more seasoned setters, is expected to play a central role in steadying Capital1’s offense, which has struggled over the past conferences.

Up front, the Solar Spikers addressed their middle rotation by securing middle blocker Ezra Madrigal. The FEU product brings size, timing, and veteran poise at the net, bolstering a middle group that includes KC Galdones, Pia Abbu, and Rachel Austero.

Madrigal’s arrival also reunites her with head coach Jorge De Brito, under whom she played during Akari’s early PVL campaigns.

Completing the quartet is libero Rachel Jorvina, who shores up Capital1’s backcourt after stints with Akari and the Nxled Chameleons. A reliable floor defender and receiver, Jorvina adds experience and stability to the Solar Spikers’ defensive setup.

With Adorador, Nabor, Madrigal, and Jorvina now in the fold, Capital1 enters the 2026 All-Filipino Conference with a more balanced roster as the Solar Spikers look to re-enter the playoff picture.
