NECVA Championship Tournament is a culminating event of the season for 43 participating teams of North East Collegiate Volleyball Association. It is held annually in April and tournament's location is selected by NECVA' Executive Board from the pool of hosting bids. The top two schools in each division (CUNYAC, GNAC, Metro, New England, and Western) and six at-large selections earn berths. The NECVA champion tournament receives one of four automatic bids to the Molten Division III Final Four in April.
