PSL Invitational Cup chronology
PSL conference chronology

The 2016 Philippine Super Liga Invitational Cup (also known as the 2016 PLDT Home Ultera Philippine Super Liga Invitational Cup due to sponsorship reasons) was the seventh indoor volleyball conference of the Philippine Super Liga, the first conference of the 2016 season, and the eighth conference overall. It ran from February 18 to April 9, 2016, coinciding with the UAAP Season 78 volleyball tournaments. A guest team from Thailand, playing under the name Est Cola, joined the final round, clashing against top three teams of the preliminary round for the championship.[1][2][3][4] LVPI Director Jeff Tamayo was the guest speaker of the opening ceremonies, while LVPI President Joey Romasanta and Sports5 head Patricia Bermudez-Hizon attended the awarding ceremonies.

The tournament marked the return of the Philippine Army Lady Troopers (now playing under the name of another PSL team, RC Cola) to the PSL.[5]
