The 2014 United Football League was the fifth season of the UFL since its establishment as a semi-professional league in 2009. The UFL League kicked off on Saturday, January 11 with 9 teams in Division I and 12 teams in Division II.[1]
Stallion was the defending champion, having won the Division 1 of the 2013 United Football League season.[2]
Global outclassed Pachanga Diliman 7-2 on 12 June 2014 to win the 2014 United Football League title with three games to spare.[3]
The relegated Philippine Air Force from 2013 UFL Division 1 [4] was replaced by Team Socceroo as the champion of 2013 UFL Division 2.[5] The Manila Nomads voluntarily stepped down from Division I and played 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 made their debuts i the league's Division II.[6] In this season, the Division I played a triple round-robin system, increasing games from 18 to 24.
