According to IamJammed.com, this year will be the diamond anniversary of UAAP. The 75th season, dubbed as “Unbreakable at 75″, will be hosted by National Univeristy.
Just like every year, there will be a traditional basketball doubleheader at the opening ceremony on July 14 at SM MOA Arena. Face to face on the court will be NU versus UE and UST versus FEU.

The next day, UAAP rivals De La Salle University (DLSU) and Ateneo de Manila University (AdMU) will have separate opponent; DLSU Green Archers will face UP Maroons while AdMU Blue Eagles will take on AdU Falcons. The two games will still be held at the Arena.
UAAP commission, headed by their president Nilo Ocampo, tapped the veteran mentor Ato Badolato to become the basketball tournament commissioner. Badolato will supervise each game and will, as much as possible, prevent brawls and bench-clearing fights to happen.
UAAP will also produce a technical manual that will detail the rules and regulations of the competitions. This was not done by the league in quite a while, according to Ocampo.
At least 60% of the basketball matches will be held in SM MOA Arena while the rest will be at SMART Araneta Coliseum. UAAP will continue the practice of selling separate tickets for matches with expected sellout, particularly DLSU vs AdMU games.
Ocampo and the whole UAAP team are also hoping to gain more audience for other UAAP games, particularly the Women’s Volleyball who is currently generating popularity among UAAP supporters and enthusiasts.
