Background

edit

On June 22, 2024, José Rizal University gave the hosting rights to Lyceum of the Philippines University during the Cheerleading Competition at the Filoil EcoOil Centre.[1] Hercules Callanta, the LPU athletic director and management committee chairman, said that they are planning to partner with the San Juan City government so that all but the opening matches will be held at the Filoil EcoOil Centre.[2]

100 Greatest Players

edit

With the NCAA celebrating its centennial season, it will also compile a list of its 100 greatest players. Currently, the known criteria for nomination are as follows:

  • The player must be an "exceptional figure" that has competed in any sporting event the league has held.
  • The player must have been retired for at least 20 years.
    • This may change since three schools (Arellano, EAC, and Lyceum) have been members for less than 20 years.

The NCAA unveiled the first 10 players during the opening ceremony, with a separate event being planned for the remaining 90 players during the middle of the season.[3]
