About Us:

The UP Women’s Basketball Team (UPWBT) finished 5th in Season 85 of the UAAP. The Team, which was mostly made up of sophomores and rookies finished with a 6-8 record. The 5th place finish has been the Team’s highest ranking in more than decade.

 

UAAP History:

The last time the UPWBT won the UAAP championship was in 1983. The Team was a consistent contender but was slowly overtaken by the other school programs. The team struggled to find consistency and was not able to perform well in the past seasons, sometimes finishing seasons with 0 wins.

The program had a new head coach in Paul Ramos, an alumni from the College of Human Kinetics in Season 82. During the pandemic the Team was focused on recruiting young players (freshmen/transferees) from all over the Philippines to jumpstart the program. The Team finished 3rd in Season 84’s 3x3 basketball tournament and continued to show signs of improvement in Season 85. 

 

Goals:

The UPWBT hopes to continue to evolve and create an environment that will push its players to be the best that they can be in competition and in life. The goal is for the players to be able to graduate with a degree from UP and to use that to be able to create opportunities for the players.

In the UAAP, the immediate goal is to learn to win consistently and qualify for the Final 4 in Season 86. The Team aims to reach the UAAP finals and win a championship for the UP Community in the next 2 years.

 

Call for Donation:

The UPWBT would like to ask the UP Community and the members of the Nowhere to go but UP for support. As we continue our rebuild, food has been one of the more expensive expenses of the Team. It would be a big help for our players physically and mentally to be able to enjoy recovery meals after every practice. We would like to thank you again for this opportunity to address you and for the continuous support. UP FIGHT!!!
