conference tournaments

Conference tournaments are competitive events held at the end of the regular sports season within a specific athletic conference. Teams from the same conference compete in a knockout or series format to determine the conference champion. Winning the tournament often grants the team an automatic spot in the national or broader postseason competition, such as the NCAA tournament in college sports. These tournaments add excitement and serve as a culmination of the season’s efforts, providing teams with a chance to earn recognition, improve rankings, and qualify for larger competitions.
