The 3,000 capacity Ynares Sports Arena is situated in Shaw Boulevard, Pasig City approximately 1 kilometer and 250 meters away from EDSA corner Shaw Boulevard where MRT-3 Shaw Station is located. Heading off to this sports center from both north (Alabang, Sucat, Baclaran, FTI, Bicutan, NAIA) and south (Monumento, Caloocan, Malabon, Navotas, Valenzuela, Cubao, Fariview, Novaliches) of Metro Manila is relatively easy. By bus, you need to ride one with "Crossing Ibabaw" sign in its front, e.g. "Monumento Crossing Ibabaw", "Baclaran Crossing Ibabaw", "Alabang Crossing Ibabaw" and "Fairview Crossing Ibabaw", and alight at Shaw Boulevard also known as Crossing. By train, from any station of MRT-3, alignt at Shaw Station.
From EDSA, you need to ride a jeepney with "Pasig Palengke" sign. I'm gonna give you guide and direction in such a way that you don't need to ask for driver's assistance. First, go to PARKLEA Jeppney Terminal located along Shaw Boulevard opposite Starmall.
How to get to the jeepney terminal from MRT Shaw Station?
If you're riding a train from Taft Avenue Station, go to escalator near to the rear of the train. If you're riding a train from North Avenue Station, go to escalator near to the front of the train. Go up the second level of the station. From the turnstile (exit machine), go right and enter a glass door, then go right again and use the stairs to get to the lower level of the station again. From the foot of the stairs, go to your left to exit the station towards the jeepney terminal. Once in the ground, walk along Shaw Boulevard away from the corner of EDSA until you get to the jeepney terminal next to Andok's Lechon.
How to get to jeepney terminal from the bus unloading areas?
If you're riding a bus from Monumento, Fairview, Cubao or Novaliches, and you get off the bus before the bus crosses Shaw Boulevard, walk across Shaw Boulevard, then walk along Shaw Boulevard from corner of EDSA until you get to the jeepney terminal next to Andok's. After the bus crossed Shaw, walk along Shaw Boulevard from the corner of EDSA to get to the jeepney terminal.
If you're riding a bus from Baclaran, Alabang or Sucat, and you gets off the bus before the bus crosses Shaw Boulevard, cross EDSA and walk further along Shaw Boulevard until you see the jeepney terminal next to Andok's Lechon. If the bus has already crossed Shaw Boulevard before you got off, walk across Shaw to get back to the other corner, then cross EDSA, and walk further along Shaw Boulevard to get the jeepney terminal next to Andok's.
Ride a jeepney with "Pasig Palengke" sign.
In the terminal entrance, jeepneys of different destinations are parked in a row. The jeepneys with "Pasig Palengke" sign occupy the last two slots. Ride one of these jeepneys. Pay minimum fare.
Now, here's the simple guide along the jeepney route up to Ynares Sports Arena. If you pay attention here, there's no need to ask the jeepney driver to drop you off at the exact location of Ynares Sports Arena. It would be a big help if you're sitting beside the driver or if you're at the back, make sure you're sitting in the left side of the jeep. You can easily do that because you're going to ride the jeep at the terminal.
Ynares Sports Arena is located to the left of Shaw Boulevard. See map below this post. The first main intersection from EDSA with traffic lights is One San Miguel Avenue, where a very tall building called One San Miguel Avenue is located at the corner of Shaw Boulevard and San Miguel Avenue, to your left. Next main road to the left of Shaw is Meralco Avenue, there's no traffic light but a pedestrian overpass is erected across Shaw from corner of Meralco Avenue. Before Meralco Avenue, the jeepney will pass by a main intersection to the right of Shaw Boulevard called Pioneer Street and there's a big Caltex Gasoline Station right at the corner of Shaw and Pioneer. Ynares Sports Arena is approximately 200 meters away from Meralco Avenueu. There's an oval rotunda with some trees inside it along Shaw Boulevard just before Ynares Sports Arena.

How To Commute To Makati Coliseum
In this article, I'll show you how to get to the Makati Coliseum in a very simple way. First off, Makati Coliseum is accessible from both MRT-3 and LRT-1 lines. The nearest MRT Station, commute wise, is Magallanes Station, while the nearest LRT is Gil Puyat Station. You can also get off at Vito Cruz Station and ride a jeepney at a terminal which is way too far, then ride a tricylce, but for first timer, it's not easy so Gil Puyat Station is more convenient. The roads and landmarks are familiar. But if you're from the vicinity of La Salle Taft, then follow direction at Route #11 below. A jeepney ride from the train stations is needed to get to the vicinity of the coliseum and the sign of the jeepney you must take from both Magallanes and Gil Puyat stations is "PRC". Makati Coliseum is situated approximately 430 meters from the jeepney drop off point at the corner of Chino Roces Avenue (formerly Pasong Tamo) and Mascardo Street. There's a terminal of motorized tricycle at the corner of Mascardo and Chino Roces Avenue. You can walk your way to Makati Coliseum which is located to the left of Maskardo Street or ride one of these tricycles.
Now, here's how you head off to the sport center from MRT-3 and LRT-1:
How to get to Makati Coliseum from MRT Magallanes Station?
Direction #1 - From MRT Magallanes Station, go to Chino Roces Avenue formerly known as Pasong Tamo. It's the main thoroughfare that intersects EDSA underneath EDSA-Magallanes flyover where lots of passenger jeepneys pass through, and its a short walk away from the train station. If you're riding a train from Taft Station, enter Alphaland Southgate Mall which is connected to MRT, go down to the ground floor and exit the mall to the west side that leads to Chino Roces Avenue.
Along Chino Roces Avenue, you get to see jeepneys of either "Ayala" or "PRC" signs in their front. Ride a jeepney with "PRC" sign. Pay minimum. PRC here means Philippine Racing Club which is situated near the northern end of Chino Roces, specifically A.P. Reyes Avenue, 1207 Makati City. It is also known as Santa Ana Park.
The jeepney will traverse the north bound lane of Chino Roces. The first main intersection the jeepney will cross is Arnaiz Avenue formerly Pasay Road where Walter Mart is located to the first left corner. Mascardo Street is approximately 3.2 km from EDSA. Next intersection with traffic lights is Herrera Street now known as Rufino Street, followed by Dela Rosa Street, then the wide intersection of Gil Puyat Avenue formerly known as Buendia. There's a McDonald's branch to the right first corner of Gil Puyat and Chino Roces, and opposite it to the left first corner is an skyscraper called Export Bank Plaza.
After crossing Gil Puyat Avenue, there are two other intersections with traffic lights that the jeep will pass through - Kamagong Street and Pablo Ocampo Sr Ext., respectively. There's a big Rustan's Shopwise branch to the right second corner of Pablo Ocampo and Chino Roces. At this point Mascardo Street is approximately 200 meters away. A large road sign with "Mascardo St" words written on it hangs conspicuously from a post at the corner. It's noticeable from the distance. You get to see it from afar. Davila Street comes first before Mascardo. Get off the jeep at Mascardo Street, walk across the road to get to the other side of Chino Roces and then decide if you walk or take one of the tricycles at the corner.
If you decide to walk, all you need to remember is you will cross three streets before you get to see Makati Coliseum to the left of Mascardo Street. First street is Metropolitan Avenue, followed by Pasong Tirad, then Primo de Riveria Street. That's it, you're looking now at Makati Coliseum, next to the building with "WTJ Sports & Amusement Center" signage to the left second corner of Primo Riveria and Mascardo streets. See map below.
How do you get to Makati Coliseum from LRT Gil Puyat Station?
Direction #2 - From Gil Puyat Station, go to the area of Gil Puyat Avenue where you can conveniently ride a jeepney. Don't wait for a jeepeny at the corner. There are lots of traffic enforcers and jeepneys won't stop there. Walk a little bit far from the corner, then wait for a jeepney with "PRC" sign in its front, flag it down, ride in and pay minimum fare.
No need to ask the driver to drop you off at Mascardo Street. Some of them forget because of the nature of their job. Just follow this simple guide. Normally, the jeepney traverses Gil Puyat Avenue and crosses Osmena Highway underneath Osmena Flyover before turning right onto Washington Street, then left on Dela Rosa Street and then left on Chino Roces once again, its last turn. Remember, your drop off point is at the corner of Chino Roces Avenue and Mascardo Street. See map below. Now, there are times, especially during the days when traffic in Gil Puyat is so heavy, that some of jeepneys take the side road paralleled to Gil Puyat which is called Finlandia. In that case, the jeep goes straight, crosses Osmena Highway underneath Osmena Flyover, takes Dela Rosa Street, then turns left on Chino Roces Avenue from Dela Rosa Street.
After the left turn at Dela Rosa and Chino Roces intersecion, the jeepney will cross Gil Puyat Avenue on its way to PRC. You should see a McDonald's to the right first corner of Gil Puyat and Chino Roces. To the left first corner opposite McDonald's is an skyscraper called Export Bank Plaza.
After crossing Gil Puyat Avenue, there are two other intersections with traffic lights that the jeep will pass through - Kamagong Street and Pablo Ocampo Sr Ext., respectively. There's a big Rustan's Shopwise branch to the right second corner of Pablo Ocampo and Chino Roces. At this point Mascardo Street is approximately 200 meters away. A large road sign with "Mascardo St" words on it hangs conspicuously from a post at the corner. It's noticeable from the distance. You get to see it from afar. Davila Street comes first before Mascardo. Get off the jeep at Mascardo, walk across the road to get to the other side of Chino Roces and then decide if you walk or take one of the tricycles at the corner.
If you decide to walk, all you need to remember is you will cross three streets before you get to see Makati Coliseum to the left of Mascardo. First street is Metropolitan Avenue, followed by Pasong Tirad, then Primo de Riveria Street. That's it, you're looking now at Makati Coliseum, next to the building with "WTJ Sports & Amusement Center" signage to the left second corner of Primo Riveria and Mascardo streets.

LRT Line 2 is the train that runs from Recto Station to Santolan Station. You can transfer to either LRT-1 or MRT-3 to get to the location of Makati Coliseum. Which one takes you faster depends on which one is nearer to your location.

How To Commute To The Filoil Flying V Arena In San Juan
Formerly known as The Arena in San Juan, The Filoil Flying V Arena is an indoor sporting stadium with 5,000 capacity and is situated along west side of Santolan Road near corner P. Guevara Street in San Juan City, Metro Manila. It is under jurisdiction of Barangay Corazon De Jesus. There are important landmarks located near the arena that make commuting to the coliseum relatively easy.
If you're coming from EDSA, the first important landmark you should watch for to the right of Santolan Road very close to the bowl is the Fountain International School. Once you see the school institution, get off the jeepney. Next to the school is San Juan Police Station. Between the school and police station is the access road that leads to Filoil Flying V Arena. See Map below this article.
If you're coming from Quiapo, Morayta, Legarda, LRT-2 V. Mapa Station, Magsaysay Boulevard, Araneta Avenue and SM City Sta Mesa, watch for P. Guevara Street where Caltex and Seaoil gas stations are located on two corners to your right. There's also road sign that read P Guevarra St attached above the traffic light post at the corner of Santolan Road and P. Guevarra Street. Get off the bus or jeep at P. Guevarra Street.
One important thing, if you're riding a jeep or bus from SM City Sta Mesa or Quiapo, please remember that Santolan Road is the extension of Pinaglabanan Street. That means Pinaglabanan Street changes its name to Santolan Road in P. Guevarra Street. See map below this article.

This is important because there are bus conductors and jeepney drivers that forget to tell passengers that they've already arrived to their destination even though the passengers requested to drop them off at the location. In this guide, there's no need for you to depend on the driver and conductor to get to the exact location of this arena. Just follow the clear-cut direction.

How do you notice that you're already in the location of The Filoil Flying V Arena if you're riding a jeep from EDSA?
The jeepney will traverse the whole stretch of Ortigas Avenue from EDSA. A lot of passengers will alight at Greenhills Shopping Center, which is located along Ortigas Avenue approximately 1.2 km from EDSA. There are a few intersections with traffic lights along Ortigas, but don't mind them. You can tell that you're nearing San Juan Arena once the jeep turn left from Ortigas Avenue to a little bit busy street called Santolan Road. It's only once that the jeep turns to another road. Ortigas then left on Santolan, that's it. In Santolan Road, watch for a street that runs diagonal from road to your right. After that, Santolan Road bends to the right in a slowly curving direction. At this point you're less than 300 meters to the access way of The Filoil Flying V Arena. Watch for Fountain International School big sign to you're right. The school is located at the part of Santolan Road that bends back to the left in a little bit sharp curve. The signage of the school is massive so it's a perfect landmark. Get off the jeep right there. The Filoil Flying V Arena is visible from the access road next to Fountain International School. The access road is between the school and the San Juah Police Precint which located at the corner of Santolan and P. Guevarra Street. See map below.
How do you notice you're already in the location of The Filoil Flying V Arena if you're riding a bus from Quiapo, Nicanor Reyes or Morayta, SM City Sta Mesa, V. Mapa Station, Araneta Avenue and N. Domingo?
Okay, the important thing to remember is you'll be passing by SM City Sta Mesa. The bus turns right onto Araneta Avenue from the frontage of SM City Sta Mesa. Araneta Avenue ends in N. Domingo. The bus turns left on N. Domingo. In N. Domnigo, you will pass by a large Puregold branch to your right. Then the bus turns right onto the main road perpendicular to the right of N. Domingo. This road is Pinaglabanan, the road in which The Filoil Flying V Arena is situated to the left approximately 960 meters from the corner of N. Domingo. It just changes its name to Santolan Road in P. Guevarra Street. There are important institutions you should see before you reach P. Guevarra. A church called Holy Child Parish is to your right, followed by Pinaglabanan Elementary School, to the right as well. And then there's the monument built to commemorate 1896 Philippine Revouliton called Pinaglabanan Shrine located to the left of Pinaglabanan Street as the road bends to the left. P. Guevarra Strret intersection is up ahead. Watch for Caltex to your right. Once you see it, you're also looking at P. Guevarra intersection, marked by traffic lights with "P. Guevarra" road sign attached to it. You can get off the bus if the traffic light is red. You can also alight at Seaoil Station. I don't recommend heading to Filoil Flying V Arena via P. Guevarra because it's more nearer and convenient via the access road between San Juan Police Station and Fountain International School. The police headquarters is located to the left of Santolan Road corner P. Guevarra Street. Next to it is the international school. Between them is the entryway to Filoil Flying V Arena which is just a few meters from the sidewalk.

How do you notice that you're already in the location of The Filoil Flying V Arena if you're riding a jeep from EDSA?
The jeepney will traverse the whole stretch of Ortigas Avenue from EDSA. A lot of passengers will alight at Greenhills Shopping Center, which is located along Ortigas Avenue approximately 1.2 km from EDSA. There are a few intersections with traffic lights along Ortigas, but don't mind them. You can tell that you're nearing San Juan Arena once the jeep turn left from Ortigas Avenue to a little bit busy street called Santolan Road. It's only once that the jeep turns to another road. Ortigas then left on Santolan, that's it. In Santolan Road, watch for a street that runs diagonal from road to your right. After that, Santolan Road bends to the right in a slowly curving direction. At this point you're less than 300 meters to the access way of The Filoil Flying V Arena. Watch for Fountain International School big sign to you're right. The school is located at the part of Santolan Road that bends back to the left in a little bit sharp curve. The signage of the school is massive so it's a perfect landmark. Get off the jeep right there. The Filoil Flying V Arena is visible from the access road next to Fountain International School. The access road is between the school and the San Juah Police Precint which located at the corner of Santolan and P. Guevarra Street. See map below.
How do you notice you're already in the location of The Filoil Flying V Arena if you're riding a bus from Quiapo, Nicanor Reyes or Morayta, SM City Sta Mesa, V. Mapa Station, Araneta Avenue and N. Domingo?
Okay, the important thing to remember is you'll be passing by SM City Sta Mesa. The bus turns right onto Araneta Avenue from the frontage of SM City Sta Mesa. Araneta Avenue ends in N. Domingo. The bus turns left on N. Domingo. In N. Domnigo, you will pass by a large Puregold branch to your right. Then the bus turns right onto the main road perpendicular to the right of N. Domingo. This road is Pinaglabanan, the road in which The Filoil Flying V Arena is situated to the left approximately 960 meters from the corner of N. Domingo. It just changes its name to Santolan Road in P. Guevarra Street. There are important institutions you should see before you reach P. Guevarra. A church called Holy Child Parish is to your right, followed by Pinaglabanan Elementary School, to the right as well. And then there's the monument built to commemorate 1896 Philippine Revouliton called Pinaglabanan Shrine located to the left of Pinaglabanan Street as the road bends to the left. P. Guevarra Strret intersection is up ahead. Watch for Caltex to your right. Once you see it, you're also looking at P. Guevarra intersection, marked by traffic lights with "P. Guevarra" road sign attached to it. You can get off the bus if the traffic light is red. You can also alight at Seaoil Station. I don't recommend heading to Filoil Flying V Arena via P. Guevarra because it's more nearer and convenient via the access road between San Juan Police Station and Fountain International School. The police headquarters is located to the left of Santolan Road corner P. Guevarra Street. Next to it is the international school. Between them is the entryway to Filoil Flying V Arena which is just a few meters from the sidewalk.

How To Commute To Amoranto Stadium And Amoranto Theater
Amoranto Sports Complex is situated along Don Alejandro Roces Avenue, simply known as Roces, with its main gate located approximately 400 meters from the corner of Quezon Avenue and Roces Avenue where the tall building of Hotel Sogo is located. Amoranto Sports Complex is so massive, having 5 gates, 2 along Roces Avenue and 3 along Scout Chuatoco, the road that borders the sports complex to the south. Roces borders the sports complex to the north. Amoranto Stadium access is the main entrance, Gate 1. Amoranto Theater is at Gate 4, along Scout Chuatoco. If you're going directly to Amoranto Theater, the best way is to alight from the jeep at Roces corner Scout Reyes then walk down the slope towards Scout Chuatoco, turn right until you get to Gate 4.
Here's how to get to Amoranto Sports Complex by jeepney, bus and MRT/LRT train
Route #1
From Alabang, Muntinlupa, Pacita, Festival Mall, Filinvest City, Metropolis Starmall, Sucat and provinces of Batangas, Laguna and Quezon including areas near to these locations.
Option 1. Ride a bus with "Cubao Ibabaw" sign. If you're from far distant province like those mentioned above, you need to get to Alabang where you can ride one of these buses. This is the first route if you prefer to get to the first stop, which is Cubao, by bus. Get off the bus at the unloading station in Farmer's Plaza where MRT-3 Araneta Center Cubao is connected. You can always, ask the conductor to drop you off at Farmer's. A lot of passengers alight there, too. And the bus will stay there a little bit longer to pick up more passengers.
From bus drop-off point, walk northward along EDSA or towards Aurora Boulevard. Use the footbridge at Aurora Boulevard and go to the third corner of EDSA and Aurora Boulevard. The first corner is where you climb the footbridge, the second corner is either the opposite side of EDSA or the opposite side of Aurora Boulevard, depending which way you go. Don't go down at the second corner. Instead, walk further past the second corner to the other side. See map below.
Go down the footbridge via stair located along Aurora Boulevard. At this point you would notice that you're on the lane of Aurora Boulevard bound for Quiapo, SM City Sta Mesa, Recto and Divisoria. Walk along Aurora Boulevard towards Sgt J. Calolos Street, the road next to EDSA. Wait for a jeepney with "Roces Palengke Pantranco" sign at the corner of Aurora Boulevard and Calolos Street. See the red pin on the map above, that's where you ride the jeep.
Option 2. But if you want to travel fast, then you can ride any bus bound for north of Metro Manila e.g. Monumento, Fairview, Novaliches, etc. Alight at Magallanes Station of MRT-3, ride a north bound train and alight at Araneta Center Cubao Station.
