The 2011 PFF National Men's Club Championship (known as the PFF–Smart Men's Club Championship for sponsorship reasons) is the 1st season of a Filipino association football competition organized by the Philippine Football Federation and sponsored by mobile phone and Internet service provider Smart Communications. It revives a national tournament discontinued since 2006. The last nationwide competition was a National Men's Open Tournament held in Bacolod under the presidency of Juan Miguel Romualdez. Plans were conceived for a similar national competition under Romualdez's successor Jose Mari Martinez but did not push through for a variety of reasons.{{cite news |access-date=2011-10-31 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120406153854/http://businessmirror.com.ph/home/sports/8062-national-open-football-tilt-back-after-five-year-hiatus |archive-date=April 6, 2012
