# 2019–20 South of Scotland Football League

The 2019–20 South of Scotland Football League was the 74th season of the South of Scotland Football League, and the sixth season as the sixth tier of the Scottish football pyramid system. Stranraer reserves were the reigning champions.
The league remained at 16 teams despite the withdrawal of Annan Athletic reserves, as Caledonian Braves reserves (formerly Edusport Academy) joined the league. However, 12 matches into the season Dumfries YMCA withdrew.
The season began on 27 July 2019 and was scheduled to end on 25 April 2020, but on 13 March the league was indefinitely suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic. On 4 May, the league voted to declare the season null and void.
