The Madden NFL 21 Championship Series was announced today by @MaddenLeagueOps on Twitter! Three events have been confirmed for the Madden 21 season, with the first being the Club Championship. The Madden NFL Challenge and Madden NFL 21 Bowl have been confirmed as events #2 and #3, respectively, with details coming at a later date.

The Madden NFL 21 Club Championship is an online qualification tournament that is narrowed down to 1 champion representing each NFL team (32 players total). After the field has been whittled down to the top 32, players will compete head to head for the largest first place prize ($150k) and largest MCS prize pool ($750k) in history! One key difference with this year's Club Championship is that it will be played using full MUT squads, not Salary Cap like in years past.
