UAAP Season 82 was the 2019–20 athletic year of the University Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP). The season was hosted by the Ateneo de Manila University.
The eight member universities of the UAAP competed in the league's sixteen sport disciplines to vie for the general championship as 3x3 Basketball will now be included as a medal event in the Seniors level, with points counted towards the general championships.
The season was cancelled mid-way on April 7, 2020, due to the coronavirus pandemic which spread to the Philippines by January 2020 after the enhanced community quarantine was extended to April 30, 2020.
Press conference A press conference was held at MOA Arena in the morning of September 1, 2019. The following were announced by the UAAP Board: In support of the 2019 Southeast Asian Games that the Philippines will host from November 30, 2019 to December 11, 2019, no UAAP event will be held for the duration of the regional meet; necessitating triple-headers during Wednesdays for men's and women's basketball in order for the tournament to end by the third week of November. Another way of ensuring the league's full cooperation, the UAAP Board will move some of the traditional first semester sports events into the second semester.
Host Ateneo de Manila University announced the addition of new sporting events in both the collegiate and high school divisions. Starting season 82, 3x3 Basketball will be an official sport. For the high school division, boys' and girls' beach volleyball will be added as medal events and boys' and girls' lawn tennis as demo sports. For the first time in league history, a girls' basketball tournament will be held as a demonstration sport starting UAAP Season 82. National University will serve as the sub-host for this inaugural tournament.
UAAP President Em Fernandez explained that for the past two seasons, 3x3 basketball has been a demonstration sport and with the active participation of all member schools, the league has deemed to upgrade it as an official sport, raising the medal events in the collegiate level to 31.
Far Eastern University will serve as the sub-host for this season's 3x3 basketball tournament that is set to take place in March 2020.
On the other hand, lawn tennis and beach volleyball in the high school division will be making its debut.
