The Ynares Sports Arena is an indoor arena located in Pasig, Philippines. The stadium has hosted the basketball games of the Philippine Basketball Association, Philippine Basketball League, and Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League, as well as college basketball tournaments. The arena was built in the former location of Rizal's provincial capitol.
It was the primary home venue of the ASEAN Basketball League (ABL) teams Philippine Patriots and the San Miguel Beermen. The Beermen notably lost the deciding game of the 2012 ABL Finals to the Indonesia Warriors in the arena.[1]
It has hosted games of the UNTV Cup and it is currently the home arena of the Pasig Sta. Lucia Realtors of Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League.
The Philippine Basketball Association was meant to play exclusively in the arena during the 2021 PBA Philippine Cup due to COVID-19 restrictions.[2] However, when Metro Manila, where Pasig is a part of, was put in a more restricted quarantine, games were transferred to a venue outside of Metro Manila.[3]
