The relegated Philippine Air Force from 2013 UFL Division 1 [4] will be replaced by Team Socceroo as the champions of 2013 UFL Division 2.[5] The Manila Nomads voluntarily stepped down from Division I and will play in Division II for this season citing its inability to comply with Division I's Foreigner Cap rule, which dictates that there should be a minimum of six Filipino players on the pitch at all times. Manila Jeepney and Ceres will make its debut at the league's Division II.[6] In this season, the Division I will play a triple round-robin system, increasing games from 18 to 24.
