The Bicolandia Oragons, also known as Bicolandia Oragons–Shawarma Shack for sponsorship reasons, are a Filipino professional basketball team based in the Bicol Region. The team currently competes in the Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League (MPBL) as a member of the league's South Division. They are the lone team in the Bicol Region and split their home games between the Ibalong Centrum for Recreation and the Albay Astrodome, both located in Legazpi, Albay.
Originally named the Bicol Volcanoes, the team was founded as one of six expansion teams for the league's 2019–20 season.
History
Founded in 2019, the Bicol franchise joined the Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League as an expansion team for its 2019–20 season. The franchise was originally going to named the Albay Volcanoes, but changed its location identifier to Bicol to represent the entire region.
Led by ex-PBA cager Ronjay Buenafe, the Volcanoes finished with a 16–14 record, clinching the eighth seed in the playoffs. Bicol faced the first-seeded Davao Occidental Tigers in the First Round. The team won game 2 to tie the series, marking the first time that an 8-seed won a playoff game against a 1-seed. Unfortunately, Bicol would lose the deciding game 3 in overtime. Bicol was one of the 22 teams that took part in the 2021 Invitational. After finishing second place in Group B, the team would lose to Imus in the Quarterfinals.
After opting out of the 2022 season, the team returned for the succeeding 2023 season. The team would go on to win only one game in the 28-game season, which came against Mindoro in the 17th game.
On March 2, 2024, the team formally announced a name change to the Bicolandia Oragons, with Shawarma Shack as their main sponsor.
Volcanoes boli založené v roku 2016 ako expanzný tím PBA. Tím je vlastnený skupinou podnikateľov z provincie Bicol, vrátane bývalého kongresmana Grega Abaya a podnikateľa Roberta Aventajada.
Volcanoes hrajú svoje domáce zápasy v Albay Astrodome v Legazpi City. Tím trénuje bývalý tréner národného tímu Philippin Nino Valencia.
Vo svojom debutovom období skončili Volcanoes na 10. mieste s bilanciou 5–9. V nasledujúcej sezóne sa tímu podarilo zlepšiť a skončil na 7. mieste s bilanciou 9–5.
Volcanoes sú známi svojou rýchlou hrou a streľbou za tri body. Tím vedie skúsený strelec Paul Varilla a talentovaný nováčik Roger Pogoy.
Volcanoes sú jedným z najpopulárnejších tímov v PBA a majú veľkú fanúšikovskú základňu v provincii Bicol. Tím je považovaný za potenciálneho kandidáta na titul v nadchádzajúcich sezónach.
