UAAP Volleyball HISTORY/GUIDELINES
The University Athletic Association of the Philippines volleyball tournament was usually held in first semester. The UAAP Board however decided that starting Season 69, School Year 2006-2007, it will then be moved to the second semester which is on December. This move is approved so as to give exposure to the Women's Volleyball who have gained fans in the semi-professional Shakey's V-League and thus be televised. The Volleyball Tournament in UAAP is divided into two divisions and with two tournaments each. There's the Junior's Division where you have the High School tournament for Boys and Girls and the Senior's Division where you have the tournament for College for Men and Women.
Tournament Format
The tournament begins with a double round eliminations, where a team meets its opponent twice in a season. The four top teams qualify for the postseason if and when a team doesn't sweep the eliminations. The postseason is divided into the semi-finals and the Finals. In the semi-Finals, the top four teams based on team standings (and tiebreakers, if applicable) from the elimination round qualify. The two top seeds have a twice to beat advantage, that is they must be beaten twice in order to be eliminated. The lower seeds, on the other hand, can be eliminated when they are defeated once. The surviving teams face off in a best-of-three Finals, where the team which notches two wins first wins the championship. If a team wins all of the games in the elimination round, the step ladder format is used, where the unbeaten team has a bye up to the best-of-three Finals. The third and fourth seed will figure in a knockout game; the winner of that game will face the second seed with a twice-to-win disadvantage. The surviving team meets the first seed at ther Finals. The other format however is that if a team survives the elimination round unbeaten, they are declared as the automatic champions.
The Final Four for Volleyball was instituted in the 1993-94 season, the year, the UAAP declared that there be a Final Four in all mandatory sports. In 2004, there was no Final Four for the La Salle Lady Spikers swept the eliminations and eventually emerged as champions.
