List of Atlantic Coast Conference champions
The Atlantic Coast Conference awards championships in 28 sports—13 men's and 15 women's (women's gymnastics was added for the 2023-24 school year with the addition of Clemson). Nationally, fencing (which was relaunched as an official conference sport in 2014–15 after having been absent since 1980) is a coeducational sport, offering one team title since 1990, while ACC titles are awarded to the men's and women's teams. In all sports except volleyball, champions are determined by a post-season game, tournament, or meet. In football, the teams with the best conference records play in the ACC Championship Game for the conference title. The volleyball title is awarded based on regular-season play.

Both schools were without baseball for more than 40 years before joining the ACC—Syracuse, a member since 2013, last sponsored baseball in the 1972 season, and SMU, which joins in 2024, last sponsored baseball in the 1980 season.

Stanford, which joins in 2024–25, also sponsors the sport. Fencing was a men's sport during the first era of ACC fencing from 1971 to 1980. Today, ACC fencing is a coeducational sport, with teams fielding separate men's and women's squads and all bouts involving a single sex. Although the NCAA Fencing Championships award only a single team title, the ACC Fencing Championships award separate men's and women's team titles.[9]

The ACC football champion was determined based on regular season finish from 1953 until 2004. In 2005, the conference split into two divisions, and the division winners met in the ACC Championship Game through the 2022 season.[12] The football divisions were eliminated after the 2022 season. Notre Dame has never been an ACC member in football, except for the 2020 season on a temporary basis due to the COVID-19 pandemic; that season, they played in (but lost) the football conference championship. They have otherwise remained independent but have a yearly 5-game scheduling agreement with the ACC.
