UAAP Season 88 football tournaments are the University Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP) football tournaments for its 88th season. The collegiate tournaments started on September 20, 2025. Both the collegiate and high school divisions were played at the Ayala Vermosa Sports Hub Athletics Center in Imus, Cavite and the UP Diliman Football Stadium in Quezon City. [1] [2] The senior women's tournament will begin on September 20 while the senior men's tournament will follow the day after on September 21. [3]

In a unique move for this season, the league will play the first round of eliminations until October, while the second round will continue until November, before resuming in January of the next year to give way for the national teams at the 2025 SEA Games and 2025 FIFA Women's Futsal World Cup. [4]

This is the tenth season with Rely San Agustin as the league commissioner, while University of the Philippines is the tournament's sub-host. [5]

Tournament format

The UAAP continued to use the UAAP Final Four format for the Men's Division with a double round-robin elimination round format. However, if no team sweeps the elimination round, the league reverts to the usual twice-to-beat advantage in the Final Four for the higher-seeded teams. [6] A stepladder format will be enacted if a team sweeps the elimination round. The High School and Women's divisions will also feature a double round-robin elimination round with the top two teams proceeding to the finals. [7]
