UAAP Season 75


The University Athletic Association of the Philippines or UAAP was established in 1938. It is composed of eight universities in the Philippines. Each year, teams from these member schools play in 15 different sports which include basketball, women’s volleyball, baseball, football, swimming, track and field, relays, tennis and soccer.

            The member universities are the University of the Philippines, University of Santo Tomas, Far Eastern University, National University, Ateneo de Manila University, De La Salle University, Adamson University and University of the East.

            UAAP President Nilo Ocampo of host National University disclosed the schedule of games following the simple but colorful opening ceremony last July 14, 2012 at MOA Arena. Dubbed as “Unbreakable Season 75” Ocampo said the host university will highlight the solid foundation that the league has created in collegiate sports over the past years. “Every year is an exciting year for UAAP. Our aim is to bring more people not only in basketball, but on other sports as well” Ocampo added. Basketball games will be aired live via Studio 23.
