The University Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP) holds its two-day 3x3 basketball tournaments on first week of March. It was inaugurated as a demonstration event for seniors' division in UAAP Season 80 in 2018.

At the opening press conference of UAAP Season 82 in 2019, the UAAP Board announced that 3x3 basketball would become an official sport as of the said season for both men and women.[1]

Format

Debut format

3x3 basketball made its debut in UAAP Season 80 using the group stage format. The elimination round would be divided into two groups of three to four teams each. Each team will play the teams in its group once. The top two teams per group qualify for the semifinals. The higher-seed team of a group faces the lower-seeded team of the other group in one-game semifinals match. The semifinals winners advance to the final, which is also a one-game matchup.[2][3]

Final four format

The tournament currently uses the Final Four format, first implemented on its second year in UAAP Season 81. The tournament begins with a single round-robin elimination, where a team plays the other teams once to determine which teams will qualify for the semifinals. The top four finishers enter the Final Four phase. Semifinals and final stages are played in a single game.
