The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) supports the intercollegiate sports activities of some 1,280 member schools and organizations. A not-for-profit organization, the NCAA administers scholarship and grant programs, enforces conduct and eligibility rules, and works to support and promote the needs of student athletes. The association is well-known for its lucrative branding and television deals, such as those surrounding the popular "March Madness" tournament for Division I men's basketball.

The organization took its current name in 1910.
