‘If Necessary’ events are scheduled but may not happen—depending on how a series or competition plays out.
A good example is Game 7 of a playoff series, which will only take place if both teams win 3 games in a best-of-seven matchup.
Common Examples Include:
Game 5, 6, or 7 of playoff series
Tiebreaker matches
Conditional rounds in tournaments
These events are listed in advance so fans can plan ahead—but are only confirmed once earlier games are completed.
