The PLDT Home TVolution Power Attackers (women's) and the PLDT Home Telpad-Air Force Turbo Boosters (men's) are professional volleyball teams owned by PLDT playing in the Philippine Super Liga (PSL). The club was first known as PLDT myDSL Speed Boosters during the 2013 season.

During the 2014 All-Filipino Conference, the women's team shared some players with its Shakey's V-League sister team. For the 2014 Grand Prix Conference, the women's team did not participate in the tournament, opting to focus on the Shakey's V-League tournament that coincided with the 2014 Grand Prix.

The men's team was the first PSL men’s division champion. During the 2014 season, the men's team was reinforced with selected players from the official men's volleyball team of the Philippine Air Force and played as the PLDT Home Telpad-Air Force Turbo Boosters.

The club has become inactive since the 2015 season of the PSL.
