The league consisted of sixteen teams with the champions promoted to the Cymru Premier and the bottom three teams relegated to a regional division of FAW League One.[1]
The season commenced on 16 August 2019 and had been scheduled to conclude on 4 April 2020.[2]
After the season was cut short by the Coronavirus-19 pandemic the FAW confirmed its promotion and relegation decision on June 16th 2020.[3]
Haverfordwest County were promoted to the Cymru Premier despite finishing second, after league winners Swansea University failed to achieve a Tier One license. STM Sports were relegated despite finishing 6th, after failing to achieve a Tier Two license. Cwmamman United and Caerau (Ely) were also relegated.
