Canadian university basketball championship
The 2016 CIS Women's Basketball Championship was held March 17–20, 2016, in Fredericton, New Brunswick, to determine a national champion for the 2015–16 CIS women's basketball season.[1] It was hosted by University of New Brunswick at the Richard J. Currie Centre.
This proved to be the last Women's Final 8 branded as a CIS championship. On October 20, 2016, Canadian Interuniversity Sport, the country's governing body for university athletics and the organizer of the Final 8, changed its name to U Sports.[2]
