2011 PFF National Men's U-23 Championship


The 2011 PFF National Men's Under-23 Championship is a football tournament in the Philippines organized by the Philippine Football Federation and Japanese automaker Suzuki. It is the first of its kind in the country.
The tournament was announced after the two bodies agreed on a P3.2 million sponsorship deal for the national tournament. It aims to get the finest under-23 players that would represent the country in the upcoming Under-23 Southeast Asian Games tournament late in 2011.
On 22 May 2011, Negros Occidental defeated Iloilo with a 12–1 aggregate scoreline to win the title.

The rules

The Under-23 Suzuki championship will adopt the rules and guidelines set by the ASEAN Football Federation.
The tournament will be divided into four clusters: National Capital Region, Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. The top two of each will advance to the national championship in June 2011. In the Finals, the remaining teams will follow a home-and-away format.

Schedule

In addition, standout players in the tournament will be considered as part of the national team for the 26th South East Asian Games and the AFF U-23 tournament in July, which both events will happen in Indonesia this year.
