The 2020 Scottish Women's Football Championship was due to be the inaugural season of the Scottish Women's Football Championship after its formation as the third tier of women's football in Scotland.
The league was split into two divisions - Championship North with 12 teams and Championship South with 14 teams.[1] The season started on 9 February 2020.[2] It was due to end in November 2020, but was interrupted by the coronavirus pandemic. In July 2020, the 2020 season was declared null and void. A new season began in October 2020 with the league reverting to a winter season format: 2020–21 Scottish Women's Football Championship[3]
