The NECVA Championship Tournament was the culminating event of the season for the North East Collegiate Volleyball Association, an NCAA Division III conference that only sponsored men's volleyball. The tournament was held annually in April, and its location was selected by the NECVA Executive Board from a pool of hosting bids. By the time of its final edition in 2011, the tournament featured 16 of the conference's 43 member schools—the top two in each of five divisions (CUNYAC, GNAC, Metro, New England, and Western), plus six at-large selections. The NECVA champion tournament received one of four automatic bids to the Molten Division III Final Four later in April.
The NECVA chose to disband at the end of the 2011 season after the NCAA announced it would begin sponsoring an official Division III men's championship in 2012.
