MANILA, Philippines—Team Rebisco fell to Kazakhstan’s Altay,  25-23, 25-13, 25-17, on the opening day of the 2021 AVC Asian Women’s Club Volleyball Championship Friday at Terminal 21 in Nakhon Ratchasima, Thailand.

The Philippine selection’s stand had a strong start but slowly lost steam as the undermanned team didn’t have skipper Aby Maraño, Dindin Santiago-Manabat, Eya Laure, and Ivy Lacsina who are still serving health and safety protocols.
