The UAAP Season 85 basketball tournaments are the University Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP) basketball tournaments for the 2022–23 school year.
The collegiate men's and women's tournaments began on October 1, 2022.[1][2]
Richard "Dickie" Bachmann, former Alaska Aces governor in the Philippine Basketball Association, was appointed as the UAAP basketball commissioner for this season. Bachmann's term as basketball commissioner will not just be for Season 85 but will also extend to the league's 86th season.[3]
Tournament format
The UAAP will continue to use the UAAP Final Four format.
Fr. Aldrin Suan, UAAP president, said that the league will revert to its pre-pandemic Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday schedule.[4]
The league will also include a "head coaches' challenge" based on the FIBA challenge system. This gives each team one challenge per game to review questionable calls by the officials.[5]
