National Ringette League playoffs

The National Ringette League playoffs are the knockout match, round robin, and tournament for determining the champion for National Ringette League (NRL).

In 2008, the NRL playoffs replaced the national championships for the Under-19 years and Open divisions at the Canadian Ringette Championships and have been conducted in this manner since.

[1] The 2010–11 season introduced the new "NRL Championship Tournament" replacing the Championship qualifying rounds and takes place in just one city with the intention of allowing the league to create a media event and to hold attention.

Starting in the 2011–12 season, 8 teams played a full round robin known as the "Elite Eight" to determine the champion.

The current format consists of three parts: Knockout match, Elite Eight, and Tournament.
