One September afternoon, 3 years ago, a group of dedicated people launched an ambitious project to finally put the Philippines back in the football map by creating a commercial football league. This group, collectively known as the Football Alliance, unwittingly started the most important pillar for the beautiful game that we are enjoying right now.
This structure, together with the resurgence of the Philippine Azkals, cemented the foundations of this fledgling commercial league affectionately called the United Football League or UFL for short. The local league is important because the National Team cannot survive long-term without the local league and vis-a-vis, the UFL cannot survive without the success of the Philippine Azkals. Raison-d'etre therefore dictates the sustainability of both.
To this existential condition, I would like to sincerely express my humblest gratitude and thanks for creating an avenue for us to enjoy the beautiful game. See you guys at the bleachers soon.
