2019-20 NPHL season

This is the 2019-20 North Peace Hockey League season.
The league's two British Columbia based teams had met in a best-of-three series in January of 2017 to determine the area representative at the 2018 Coy Cup. This was not done for the 2019 Coy Cup berth. Due to a lack of other teams at the Senior AA level in the province both teams advanced to the Coy Cup tournament
The league has not sent a representative to the Alberta Senior AA Playoffs for at least several seasons. The Grimshaw Huskies were to have participated in the Senior AA Provincials in Lethbridge that were cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
