UAAP Season 75 was the 2012–2013 athletic year of the University Athletic Association of the Philippines. The season's theme was "Unbreakable at 75" in relation to the league's diamond year.[1] It was hosted by National University.[2]

The men's basketball and the women's volleyball tournaments have been aired by ABS-CBN Channel 2 and Studio 23, the former for the thirteenth consecutive year and the latter since Season 69.

This season, the men's football and women's softball both became a seven-school tournament. National University made a comeback in these two events. NU was participating in these two events in the 1940s up to the 1950s. NU also fielded for the first time men's and women's teams in Taekwondo to also make these events a seven-school tournament. As seven-school tournaments, men's football and women's softball will now include the Final 4 in its format.

Opening ceremony[edit]

The opening ceremony was held on July 14, 2012 at the Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay, Metro Manila.

Basketball[edit]

The UAAP Season 75 basketball tournament began on July 14, 2012 at the Mall of Asia Arena, Pasay, Metro Manila. The tournament host was National University and tournament commissioner was Edmundo "Ato" Badolato.
