Opening of UAAP Games to Fans | University Condominiums

Apr 12, 2022

When you're a university student, one of the most significant events you look forward to is the University Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP) season. The good news is that UAAP Season 84 officially opened its doors to fans at the Mall of Asia Arena last Tuesday, April 5, for the first time in more than two years.

For the time being, the league is sticking to its quadruple-header schedule, with ticket sales beginning on Saturday, April 2. It also keeps teams and players in their bubble setups, which necessitates fans being barred from the patron and ringside areas.

Only lower box, upper box, and general admission tickets will be available to the general public, with student discounts available for the latter two sections. If you’re a student looking for a new place to move in and enjoy UAAP Season 84, then look no further than Vista Residences.

But first, what is the UAAP?

The UAAP is one of the most popular collegiate sports tournaments in the Philippines. It is organized by the University Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP).

The UAAP was established in 1924, and it has been going on ever since; and now n, it’s UAAP Season 84. Far Eastern University, National University, the University of the Philippines, and the University of Santo Tomas founded the UAAP. The UAAP currently has eight member universities, all of which are located in Metro Manila.

A total of 14 sports are competed in by the member universities. Basketball, the most popular sport in the Philippines, is the most-watched and supported sport. With the exception of baseball, which is only for men, and softball, which is only for women, most of these sports have Men's and Women's, divisions. Almost all of the sports also have a Junior division in which the universities' affiliated high schools compete.

It is a highly competitive tournament where teams from 8 different universities compete against each other. The winner of the tournament gets to take home a championship trophy and bragging rights for that year.

The convenience of having a condo near your school

Vista Residences believes in helping students find a space where they can live, study, and relax while they’re in college. Vista Residences also wants to serve students looking for places where they can find their independence and their voice. That’s why all of  Vista Residences' condo units are student-friendly, equipped with amenities that are accessible to them, and located within a reasonable distance from the schools they’re studying in.

The University Series by Vista Residences

Vista Residences holds a special place in its heart for universities. The education of the country's youth is crucial to the country's future. Vista Residences believes that students deserve better than the dorm options available today, recognizing the pressures and difficulties that come with student life.

That is why Vista Residences is providing students with better living options through the "University Series," a collection of vertical residences located near the country's key colleges and universities and designed around students' as well as academe's needs.

• Bradbury Heights - Laong Laan, Manila

• Hawthorne Heights - Katipunan, Quezon City

• Morrison Heights - España, Manila

• Orwell Heights - Recto, Manila

• Plumeria Heights - Taft, Manila

With the University Series, commuting is no longer necessary.

Even with the convenience of Grab or driving your own car, commuting for hours every day is exhausting and demotivating, especially in Metro Manila and other parts of the country where traffic is becoming increasingly congested. Add heat, humidity, rain, flood, heavy traffic, fragile projects, and last-minute cramming to the mix, and you'll have a miserable commute.

Avoid commuting entirely by purchasing a condominium near your university. You will not only avoid the inconvenient disadvantage of being stuck in traffic, but you will also have more time to complete your coursework or participate in extracurricular activities such as being part of the sports team for UAAP Season 84. You won't have to worry about getting home in the middle of the night because your condo is only a few meters away from school. Similarly, because you live nearby, it is easier to arrive at school early for that last-minute cram session before an important exam or recitation.

Recreational Areas of the University Series

Earning a college degree is difficult for the majority of students. It is essential to unwind, relax, and recharge from time to time in order to perform at your best and be ready for the next day.

You can de-stress in style if you live in a condo. Swimming pool, fitness gym, jogging path, multipurpose court, game room, hobby hall, study hall, landscape garden, retail shops, and restaurants are just a few of the amenities available in condominiums that are not available in most dorms. This means you don't have to pay for expensive gym memberships and can work out whenever you want so you can train like your favorite athletes in UAAP Season 84.

Convenience is your ally.

The chance of having a nearby condo allows you to optimize your schedule and make the most of your time. You can do so much and easily schedule your day's routine. There will be times in college when you have long periods of time between classes. Having the option of returning to your condo during those long breaks or after every game in the UAAP Season 84  is a huge benefit that students should not take for granted.
