As host, the school gets an automatic bid into the championship tournament, which features the top four teams from the north and south division.
Last year, the Queens volleyball team lost in the gold medal match in the ACAC Championship final and ended up with bronze at the Canadian Collegiate Athletic Association National Women’s Volleyball Championship. Queens basketball did not qualify for the provincial championship last year.
