The2019–20 West Region Premiership was the second and final season of theWest Region Premiership the top tier of league competition forSJFA West Region member clubs, and the 18th season since the West Region began in 2002. It was the second season after the reconstruction of the West Region into four regionwide divisions.[1][2]
As a result of theCOVID-19 pandemic, the league was indefinitely suspended on 13 March 2020.[3] The season was officially cancelled on 10 April 2020 following a decision made by the West Region Management Committee, due to the uncertainty surrounding the pandemic and theScottish Football Association's decision to extend the football shutdown until at least 10 June 2020.[4] Defending championsAuchinleck Talbot were controversially awarded the title on 22 April 2020 on a 'points per game' metric despite sitting third in the table when the season was abandoned.[5]
