Uwan forces UAAP postponements Sunday


The UAAP announced on Saturday afternoon that it is postponing its matches scheduled to take place in Metro Manila on November 9.

It reads as follows:

In light of the inclement weather brought by Severe Tropical Storm 'Uwan', the University Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP) announces that all scheduled basketball, collegiate men's football, and high school volleyball games on Sunday, November 9, 2025, are postponed.

The safety of our student-athletes, coaches, officials, fans, and everyone involved is our top priority. We strongly advise everyone to take all necessary precautions, stay indoors if possible, and ensure the safety of your family and loved ones during this severe weather event.

The UAAP will release the rescheduled dates and times for the affected games as soon as they are finalized. We thank you for your understanding and patience, and we look forward to seeing everyone back on the court safely once conditions improve.

Please stay safe.

The basketball playdate at the SMART-Araneta Coliseum includes the much-anticipated rivalry between Ateneo and La Salle, as well as the neighborly matchup between UST and FEU.

Football was supposed to conclude its schedule for 2025 with a doubleheader at the football field inside the University of the Philippines, with UST and FEU seeking to solidify a run to the postseason, while La Salle also seeking to keep its hopes alive against an already qualified UP.

The Blue Eagle Gym would have been set to host a full schedule of high school volleyball, with a tasty duel between UST and NUNS on the girls side being the main feature.

This development comes a day after it announced tweaks to its schedule for both swimming and athletics, which are set to continue its slate of activities at New Clark City tomorrow.
