The Tournament was organised by the Women's Flat Track Derby Association (WFTDA).

Together, the four qualifying tournaments and Championships were termed the "Big 5".^[1] Starting with the 2013 WFTDA season, WFTDA's regions were discontinued in favor of an overall-rankings based system, and a new playoff format was created.
