UAAP Season 72 Opening (Part 1)

UAAP Season 72 welcomes the Sarimanok

An enchanted mythical creature joins this year's UAAP season. But unlike the rest of the university icons, the legendary Sarimanok is not here to enter into battle. This beautiful bird sets out from its celestial habitat to inspire the UAAP member universities to come together.

Far Eastern University (FEU) hosts this year's UAAP Season 72 with the theme, One color. One goal. The Sarimanok, which is featured in FEUs coat of arms, has multi-colored wings representing the different universities in the UAAP.

FEU President's Committee on Culture (PCC) Executive Director Martin Lopez explains that the theme of the UAAP is a call for unity among the participating schools and among the athletes. FEUs cultural groups like The FEU Dance Company, The FEU Chorale, The FEU Bamboo Band, The FEU Theater Guild, The FEU Drum and Bugle Corps, The FEU pep squad and other organizations from FEU East Asia College and FEU-FERN College will all participate in this spectacular production.

Every season, the UAAP is described as a battle field for athletes. What is often overlooked is the spirit of camaraderie that is just as much a part of the celebration," FEU Athletic Director Mark Molina said.

The UAAP Season 72 opening ceremony was held at the Araneta Coliseum last July 11, 2009.

sometimes being simple will make you stand out. a ceremony doesnt necessarily have to be glamorous. Job well done FEU.
