The 2023 CAA men's soccer tournament was the postseason men's soccer tournament for the Coastal Athletic Association held from November 2 through November 11, 2023. The five-match tournament took place at campus sites, with the higher seed hosting. The six-team single-elimination tournament consisted of three rounds based on seeding from regular season conference play. The defending champions were the Hofstra Pride.[1] They were able to successfully defend their title, as the top overall seed they defeated the second seed Monmouth 2–1 in overtime in the Final.[2][3] The conference tournament title was the seventh overall for the Hofstra men's soccer program all of which have come under head coach Richard Nuttall. This was the third straight year that Hofstra won the CAA tournament.[4] As tournament champions, Hofstra earned the CAA's automatic berth into the 2023 NCAA Division I men's soccer tournament.

This was the first tournament under the Coastal Athletic Association and the conference changed its name from the "Colonial Athletic Association" identity on July 20, 2023.[5]
