UAAP ‘di pa magdadagdag ng event
MANILA, Philippines - Layunin ng University Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP) na lumahok sa lahat ng events ang kanilang mga member school.
“It’s the UAAP’s objective to see all of its member schools fielding teams in the men’s and women’s and juniors’ divisions of the 15 sports on the program,†sabi ni UAAP Season 76 President Fr. Maximino Rendon, CM ng host Adamson University.
Sa ngayon, limang sport lamang sa seniors division ang nilahukan ng lahat ng member schools na Adamson University, Ateneo, De La Salle, Far Eastern University (FEU), University of the East (UE), National University (NU), University of the Philippines (UP) at University of Santo Tomas (UST).
Ito ay ang men’s at women’s basketball, indoor at beach volleyball, badminton at chess.
Sa juniors, tanging chess at basketball lang ang may full participation.
Dahil dito, wala pang balak ang UAAP na magdag-dag ng bagong sports ngunit hangad nilang magdagdag ng mga Olympic sports.
“That means at the moment, the UAAP would not entertain any notion on the inclusion of new sports, inclu-ding golf and gymnastics,†sabi ni Season 76 secretary-treasurer Ma. Luisa Isip also ng Adamson University.
Sinabi ni Isip na nagsisikap ang lahat ng member schools na makapaglahok sa lahat ng events upang maging palaban sa general championship. Ang perennial overall champions na UST at De La Salle kasama ang UP ay may lahok sa lahat ng events.
