The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) of the Philippines will revert to a two-games-per-day format for the first round of the Season 100 Seniors Basketball Tournament.

Games will continue to take place every Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

The opening day will be held at the SM Mall of Asia Arena, while the rest of the first-round games will be hosted at the Filoil Ecooil Centre.

The Grand Old League will kick off its season on September 7 with a two-hour opening ceremony scheduled to begin at noon.
