Perspective
On the women's side, eight teams were set to compete, up from six the previous year. Dynamo de Québec and FC Sélect Rive-Sud withdrew from the league following the 2018 season, while four new clubs - CS Longueuil, CS St-Hubert, AS Pierrefonds and Ottawa South United - joined the league.[2] League1 Ontario and the PLSQ had planned to hold a Final Four end-of-season tournament for the women's divisions, from August 14 to 16, pitting the top two sides from each league in an inter-provincial playoff.[3] However, like the male division, the female division was impacted by the pandemic. Initially, the women's season was set to be cancelled as only two of the eight clubs had announced their participation,[4] however, two other clubs ultimately joined bringing the total to four participating clubs with four clubs opting out of the restart (CS Mont-Royal Outremont, AS Pierrefonds, CS St-Hubert, and the defending champions CS Monteuil). A shortened season ran from 25 July until 8 August, with a 3-game season,[5] which was followed by a champions playoff weekend on 15 August where the first and second place teams played a championship match, while a consolation match was held between the third and fourth place teams.[6]

Teams
Eight teams were set to initially participate, however, four teams withdrew due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The remaining four teams played a short season from late July until mid-August, with each team playing each other once, for a total of 3 games. Following this, there were matches for 1st and 3rd place.[7] After the season, the league planned to organize some exhibition matches between the participating and non-participating teams.[6] Matches in the women's division were played at centralized locations rather than at the home fields of the teams.
