The 2021 American Athletic Conference women's basketball tournament was the postseason tournament held March 8âÂÂ11, 2021, in the Dickies Arena in Fort Worth, Texas. South Florida won the tournament, its first, and earned an automatic bid to the NCAA tournament.
All of the teams in the American Athletic Conference, except for SMU, will qualify for the tournament. SMU canceled their season after going 0âÂÂ6, so they did not compete in the conference tournament. Teams are seeded based on conference record, and then a tiebreaker system will be used. Teams seeded 7âÂÂ10 play in opening round, and teams seeded 1âÂÂ6 receive a bye to the quarterfinals.
