She is part of the 16-woman pool that will embark in a training camp in Barueri, Brazil next month in preparation for the 31st SEA Games in Hanoi in May.Baron, 26, was not included in the initial 20-woman pool of the Philippine National Volleyball Federation (PNVF) released in January, despite having been a part of the national team for the 2019 SEA Games.She is joined by fellow middle blockers Dell Palomata, Jaja Santiago, Ria Meneses, and skipper Abigail Maraño.Also part of the 16-woman pool are setters Iris Tolenada and Deanna Wong, as well as liberos Dawn Macandilli and Kath Arado.The wing spikers are: Alyssa Valdez, Frances Molina, Jema Galanza, Katrina Tolentino, and Mylene Paat, as well as the California Precision Academy pair of Casiey Dongallo and Jelaica Gajero.Five players from the PNVF&#x27;s original 20-woman pool begged off: setters Jia de Guzman and Jasmine Nabor, and wing spikers Kalei Mau, Kianna Dy, and Dindin Santiago-Manabat.The team will travel to Brazil on April 12, shortly after the conclusion of the Premier Volleyball League (PVL) Open Conference. &quot;They will just be in the training camp, they just stay there for two weeks, playing matches with the top Brazilian clubs, because the Brazilian clubs are there,&quot; PNVF president Ramon &quot;Tats&quot; Suzara said of the women&#x27;s team.&quot;I believe that the women&#x27;s [team] should take this opportunity to really show their skills,&quot; he added. &quot;There&#x27;s a lot of fire and cooperation among the players for this two-week training in Brazil.&quot;The women&#x27;s team missed out on the podium in the 2019 SEA Games, but Suzara is expecting them to bag a medal in the 31st edition of the event in Hanoi, Vietnam from May 12-23.Heading the team is head coach Jorge Edson Souza De Brito, along with assistants Odjie Mamon, Grace Antigua, and Raffy Mosuela. Grace Gomez is the team&#x27;s strength and conditioning trainer.
