[edit] Early years (1924-1935)
The NCAA was founded by the Ateneo de Manila, De La Salle College, the Institute of Accounts (known today as Far Eastern University), National University, San Beda College, the University of Manila, the University of the Philippines, Manila and the University of Santo Tomas. Membership was liquid, and the composition of the league changed frequently.[1]
[edit] The old-timer six (1936-68)
After National University, University of the Philippines, Manila, and University of Santo Tomas left the league[2], the Ateneo de Manila, Colegio de San Juan de Letran, De La Salle College, José Rizal College, Mapúa Institute of Technology and San Beda College continued the league and the league's membership remained unchanged for several decades.
World War II interrupted the league's activities in 1941, but the league resumed operations after the war in 1947.
[edit] First expansion (1969-78)
San Sebastian College - Recoletos was admitted in 1969, marking the first change in the league's membership since 1936.[5]
[edit] First contraction (1978-84)
The Ateneo de Manila University left the league in 1978 due to the violence that had become rampant in the games.[6]
De La Salle University, on the other hand, left the league in 1981 after a violence-filled 1980 game against Letran.[7]
San Beda College left in 1984 to concentrate on intramural events.[5]
