If I am not mistaken, yung mga off season tourneys are optional, not required.

It is up to the school if it wants to participate.

Ang medyo "compulsory" lang ata ay ang PCCL kasi may seeding na at its a matter of school pride/prestige din since national talaga ito

Yeah but more often than not they all join nonetheless. Meron pa training abroad.

IMHO, offseason tournaments should be used to develop/gauge new talent on the teams' rosters. In fact, I think the coaching staff would benefit from knowing what they can expect from the "rookies".

The mainstays need rest, too and you often run the risk of injury even before the main tournament (UAAP) begins.

^kaya minsan mga bench warmer + team b nila ang pinalalaro...tinitignan kung sino ang pwede pakinabangan.

if i were still playing varsity tennis for my school (although team b lang ako) i wouldn't mind training abroad. actually, i wouldn't mind having any semblance of scientific training at all

if you think the uaap basketball teams have it bad schedules and logistics wise, you should see how those in farm teams fare (in my alma mater at least). no school buses, no free sports drink, little to no entourage, no pep squads, and the list goes on and on. but hey, their education is subsidized anyway so i guess the trade-off is more than satisfactory

That was weird, DLS allowed to call a TO after a official's TO for a pen on the court from a DLS scorer. Next time other team could exploit this, and deliberately leave some foreign object on the floor when their play was going nowhere.

Sometimes 2 games na liga pa nilalaruan niyan just to make ends meet. Sa edad nila, kayang-kaya pa din maka-recover.
