The University Athletic Association of the Philippines Football tournament is held during the second round of the year-long UAAP season.

Tournament format

Teams face each other in a double round-robin elimination format, with 3 points awarded for a win, 1 for a draw, and 0 for a loss.

By the end of the second round, top two teams in terms of league table points face each other in a finals series, with the top-seeded team having a twice-to-beat advantage. In the event that a team sweeps all the games during the eliminations, that team is immediately awarded the championship.

The tournament has two divisions: one for men, and one for women. Unlike other UAAP events, this has no junior (high school) division. As of today, seven out of the eight member universities field a team: the Ateneo de Manila University, the De La Salle University, the Far Eastern University, National University, the University of the East, the University of the Philippines, and the University of Santo Tomas.

List of Champions

The current defending champions are the University of Santo Tomas for Men's Football and Far Eastern University for Women's Football. Boy's Football was added as a demonstration sport for UAAP Season 70 in 2007-08.
