MANILA, Philippines — The University Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP) is a step closer from having its own home.

Led by Akari Lighting and Technology Corp. CEO Christopher Tiu and top UAAP officials, a groundbreaking ceremony was held for the Home of the UAAP on Friday inside the 1.8-hectare site along Amang Rodriguez Avenue, Pasig City.

The 8,000 seat state-of-the-art arena will serve as the main venue of all indoor events of the 18-sport calendar of the Philippines’ premier collegiate league and will also house its office and headquarters.
