UAAP to allow 2 foreign student-athletes per team starting Season 89

The UAAP has approved a new rule allowing teams to have two foreign student-athletes (FSAs) in their pool starting next season, Season 89.

This change permits teams to have a second FSA on reserve, offering more roster security.

Currently, only one foreign athlete is permitted per team in the UAAP.

The new rule ensures that while teams can have two FSAs, only one can be on the active roster at any given time.

UAAP executive director Rebo Saguisag stated that the move aims to provide schools with roster security, especially after FSAs in the past missed time due to injuries.

This policy applies to all sports within the UAAP and will take effect after the upcoming Season 88.
