Format

edit

The 2011 championship will feature a new format. The format ensures that the University Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP) and National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) champions automatically qualify to a round robin Final Four, and the respective semifinalists in both leagues and the finalists in the Cebu Schools Athletic Foundation, Inc. (CESAFI) qualify for the main draw. Other teams would have to qualify through the regional championships. In the Final Four, the team with the best record will have a twice-to-beat advantage against the #2 team.
