Rizal Memorial Coliseum

The Rizal Memorial Coliseum is one of two indoor sporting arenas located inside the Rizal Memorial Sports Complex in Manila, Philippines, the other being the Ninoy Aquino Stadium. The capacity of the coliseum is 8,000.

The arena is named after Philippine national hero Jose Rizal.

It was one of the main venues of several basketball games and other indoor sports during the 1950s up until the 1970s. The now-defunct Manila Industrial and Commercial Athletic Association played a number of games in the venue.

The Philippine Basketball Association also hosted a number of playing dates in the venue during the early-1980s. The basketball competitions of the 1981 Southeast Asian Games was held at RMC that saw a fight-marred gold medal game between the host Philippines and Malaysia.

With the construction and use of the more popular (and much larger) Araneta Coliseum, as well as the use of the PhilSports Arena, the arena suffered terribly as the arena lack an air-conditioning system and adequate lighting. However, in the past few years it has hosted a number of UAAP, NCAA and Shakey's V-League tournaments, as well as the 2005 Southeast Asian Games.

In 2007, the NCAA held its games at the Araneta Coliseum and The Arena in San Juan City marking for the first time in a long while the arena did not host any NCAA game.
