Prior to the draft, each of the teams submitted a list of ten protected players as part of their official roster for the 2014 PSL All-Filipino Conference. Players that were not included in the list will be released and placed in the pool of available players – along with the incoming rookies – for the draft. Teams were limited to a maximum of twelve players.[1]

The inaugural draft was held on April 2, 2014 at the NBA Café at SM Aura in Taguig and involved only the Women’s Division.[2]
