CollegiateChampionsLeague |
The National Collegiate Championship (NCC) is the national collegiate basketball championship tournament in the Philippines. It is sanctioned by the Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas, the country's national basketball federation, and organized by the Philippine Collegiate Champions League. Its format is similar to the one used in the United States' NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Championship, with 250 teams coming from nine different regional areas nationwide.[1]
History
It was originally established in 2002 as the Collegiate Champions League (CCL). Rey Gamboa was named as the chairman/commissioner of the tournament. In 2008, the national governing body of basketball in the Philippines, the Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas (SBP) sanctioned the CCL and was renamed into the Philippine Collegiate Champions League in which the organizers of the old CCL were retained.
Teams from the UAAP had dominated the tournament, winning ten (10) out of the twelve (12) championships contested, with the remainder being won by teams from the NCAA. UAAP and NCAA teams are given four, and the CESAFI one, outright round of 16 berths. Interestingly, no UAAP champion vs. NCAA champion took place in the final, although a final between the UAAP champion and the NCAA runner-up was contested in 2003 (FEU vs. SSC-R) and 2011 (Ateneo vs. SSC-R), UAAP and CESAFI champions contested the final in 2007, and both finalists in the UAAP contested the 2008 championship.
In 2002, 2003, 2009, 2010, 2012, 2013 and 2014, the Finals were played in a best-of-3 series; the others were one-off games (2004-2008); no third-place game was held on the first two tournaments. The contest was not held in 2005. In 2011, the single round robin Final Four match-up was introduced with the team with the most wins will have a twice-to-beat incentive in the Finals. However, in 2012, it was changed to whichever team to first get two (2) wins will automatically advanced to the Finals with the Finals without any incentives and with the Finals being played in a best-of-three series.
Starting the 2011 season, PCCL has already granted the champion teams of both UAAP and NCAA an automatic Final Four berth. Starting the 2015 season,the PCCL will be now the National Collegiate Championship(NCC).

Notes
- ↑ In 2015, it was announced that two winners of the semifinals matches will be the co-champions of the tournament. The supposed finals title match was cancelled due to Typhoon Melor (Nona). Both FEU and San Beda are co-champions for this tournament.[2][3][4]
