NCAA Season 98 is the 2022-2023 athletic year of the National Collegiate Athletic Association in the Philippines. It will be hosted by Emilio Aguinaldo College[1] and is slated to open on 10 September 2022.[2]
Background
At the closing proceedings of NCAA Season 97, the then-Season Policy Board President from De La Salle–College of Saint Benilde turned over the NCAA Flag to the next host.[3] Season 98 opened at the Smart Araneta Coliseum on September 10, with the rest of the elimination round once again returning at Filoil EcoOil Centre.[4][5]
After two seasons, events such as cheerleading, men's volleyball, track and field, swimming, and beach volleyball events will return at the senior's division.[6] For juniors, the competition will be composed of online taekwondo, online chess, and boys' basketball.[5]
Basketball
The seniors' basketball tournament is scheduled to begin on September 10. A juniors' tournament, the first since 2019, is expected to be held.[4][5]
