Шаблон:Infobox PBA season2 The 1981 Tefilin Polyesters season was the second and final season of the franchise in the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA).

Summary

Tefilin's import from the previous season – Ira Terrell, returned for the Open Conference, this time teaming up with former Royal Tru-Orange import Larry Pounds. Tefilin was tied with CDCP Road Builders after 18 games in the eliminations. Both sophomore ballclubs missed out a semifinal berth and were two games behind fourth qualifier Toyota Super Diesels.

The Polyesters signed up Norman Black, who played for the Detroit Pistons in the Southern California Summer Pro league, as their import in the Reinforced Filipino Conference. Black led the Polyesters to move into the next round for the first time in four conferences.
