UAAP Street Dance Competition

The UAAP Street Dance Competition is a new annual event of the University Athletic Association of the Philippines during the closing ceremonies. This is to encourage more students to watch since less spectators attend the closing ceremonies, where players are awarded for their performance.[1] Results of the street dance competition, together with the drum line competition, will not be added to the computation of UAAP Overall Championship.[2]
