Playoffs

Playoffs refer to a series of elimination games or matches held in sports and other competitions to determine a champion among the best teams or participants in a league or tournament. Typically, playoffs occur after the regular season and involve a structured format where teams compete in knockout rounds or series, progressing through various stages until a final winner is decided. The playoffs are designed to intensify competition, as only the top-performing teams or individuals during the regular season qualify for this stage. Depending on the sport or event, playoffs may include best-of-seven or single-elimination formats, culminating in a championship game or series that determines the overall champion.
