The Pilipinas Navy Aguilas are a professional basketball team in the Philippines. The team was established in 2022 as the Pilipinas Aguilas and initially competed in FilBasket / AsiaBasket until 2023. In 2024, the team entered the Pilipinas Super League (PSL) and will soon establish a women's department in the Women's Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League (WMPBL) in 2025.

History

[edit]

The Pilipinas Aguilas first played in FilBasket / AsiaBasket for its 2022 International Championship.[1] In the group stage, Aguilas finished second in group A, only losing to Harimau Malaysia to advance to the knockout stage. They would then go on to lose to Kuala Lumpur Aseel in the semifinals but did beat the MBC Basketball Club to claim a third place finish overall.[2] The Aguilas took part in two more tournaments afterward, the 2023 Las Piñas Championship where they placed last in Group B,[3] and the 2023 Dasmariñas Championship where they lost to the Benilde Blazers in the quarterfinals.[4]

On November 25, 2024, it was announced that the Aguilas would establish a women's basketball team for the Women's Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League's Invitational Tournament on January 19, 2025.[5] Later that year on December 10, the Aguilas were announced as one of 11 teams competing in the Pilipinas Super League for its 2024–25 season. The league also announced the team's name change to Pilipinas Navy Aguilas.[6]
