The 2020 San Antonio FC season was the club's fifth season of existence. Including the San Antonio Thunder of the original NASL and the former San Antonio Scorpions of the modern NASL, it was the 11th season of professional soccer in San Antonio. The club played in the USL Championship, the second division of the United States soccer league system, and were scheduled to participate in the U.S. Open Cup before it was postponed and ultimately cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[3] This was the first season without Darren Powell as head coach. Former assistant coach Alen Marcina was named head coach on December 9, 2019.

USL Championship
The season was suspended on March 12, for 30 days, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[43] The temporary season suspension was extended through Sunday, May 10 on March 18.[44]
The USL Championship announced on June 24 an updated format for the remainder of the 2020 season. All 35 Championship clubs will be divided into eight groups to complete a 16-game regular season followed by a single-elimination playoff beginning July 11.[45] Five substitutions will be allowed for the remainder of the season. Each team will have three opportunities to make substitutions during regular play. Substitutions may also be made at halftime without counting against a club's three in-game opportunities. San Antonio FC was placed in Group D along with Austin Bold FC, OKC Energy FC, Rio Grande Valley FC, and FC Tulsa.[46]
