The NCAA Division III Men's Wrestling Championships for individuals and teams were first officially sponsored in 1974 and have since been held annually.

The NCAA Division III Men's Wrestling Championships is a double-elimination tournament for individuals competing in ten weight classes. Eighteen wrestlers in each class qualify by being one of the top three finishers at six Regional tournaments. During the championships, individual match winners earn points based on the level and quality of the victory, which are totaled to determine the team championship standings.

In addition to determining the national championship, the NCAA Division III Men's Wrestling Championships also determine the Division III All-America team. The top eight finishers in each weight class qualify for Division III All-American status.

Women's wrestling became part of the NCAA Emerging Sports for Women program in June 2020, and graduated to full championship status in January 2025. The first NCAA championship, which uses a "National Collegiate" format open to members of all NCAA divisions, is being held in 2025–26. A separate Division III women's championship will be established in 2027–28.
