Silva scored 1,083 points in 36 regular-season matches during the 2025–2026 season and was named the V-League Women’s Division regular-season MVP. She was also reported to be the first player to score 1,000 points for three consecutive seasons, from 2023–2024 through 2025–2026.

The key question for the new season is not only whether Silva can continue her record-setting performance, but also how GS Caltex’s team composition will change after Thanacha’s arrival.

Essential Facts

  1. New-season team: GS Caltex announced that Gisele Silva will remain with the club for the 2026–2027 season.
  2. Previous-season record: Silva scored 1,083 points in 36 regular-season matches during the 2025–2026 season.
  3. Significance of the record: Her three consecutive 1,000-point seasons were reported as a first in V-League history.
  4. Award: Silva was named the V-League Women’s Division regular-season MVP for 2025–2026.
  5. New teammate: Thanacha Sooksod was signed as GS Caltex’s Asian quota player for the 2026–2027 season.

One-Line Background

Thanacha Sooksod and Gisele Silva played for different teams in the 2025–2026 championship final, but they became teammates at GS Caltex for the 2026–2027 season.

At the new-season media day, Silva cited completing the season without injury and winning the championship as more important goals than reaching 1,000 points. This reflects the player’s stated goals and does not establish her future statistics in advance.

Upcoming Schedule

Individual match scores and team standings may change as the 2026–2027 season progresses. Silva’s cumulative statistics and GS Caltex’s position should therefore be checked for each reference date using KOVO’s official match records and standings.
