The NAIA women's lacrosse tournament is a yearly single-elimination tournament hosted by the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics to determine the national champion of women's collegiate lacrosse among its members in the United States.[1]
The tournament has been played annually in 2020, although the NAIA hosted a separate NAIA women's lacrosse national invitational tournament from 2016 to 2019 before it elevated women's lacrosse as an official sport.
Reinhardt is the defending national champions, winning their first title in 2024.
