The NCAA Philippines entered a new era with Season 101, debuting a revamped group stage format that reshaped the collegiate basketball landscape. For fans and collectors alike, this season also brought fresh jersey designs from the schools competing in the Grand Old League.
Under the new format, the 10 NCAA member schools were split into two groups. Group A featured defending champion Mapua University alongside Lyceum of the Philippines University, University of Perpetual Help System DALTA, San Sebastian College-Recoletos, and Arellano University. Group B, quickly dubbed the “Pool of Death,” packed together College of St. Benilde, San Beda University, Colegio de San Juan de Letran, Jose Rizal University, and Emilio Aguinaldo College.
With rivalries like San Beda vs. Letran and Benilde vs. Mapua renewal happening in the group stage, the jerseys worn by these teams became a major talking point. ANTA Philippines, through its Varsity Project, continued as the official outfitter for three NCAA powerhouses: San Beda University, College of St. Benilde, and Colegio de San Juan de Letran. Their partnership brought high-quality, competition-grade uniforms that fans have come to associate with NCAA basketball excellence.
For supporters looking to rep their school’s colors, team jerseys remain the most popular piece of NCAA merchandise. Whether you are a Red Lions backer wanting the classic red and white, a Blazers fan sporting the green and gold, or a Knights supporter repping the signature blue and red, NCAA apparel is a staple of Filipino basketball fandom.
Even with the season wrapping up, NCAA team jerseys and fan gear continue to be in demand. Visit our NCAA Philippines collection for the latest school basketball jerseys, practice shirts, and fan merchandise available for custom printing.
