The 2020–21 Campionato Sammarinese di Calcio was the 36th edition of league competition in San Marino, in which the country's top 15 amateur football teams participate. The season began on 12 September 2020 and ended on 22 May 2021.[1]
The previous season was abandoned due to the COVID-19 pandemic in San Marino.[2] Tre Fiori were declared champions based on league position at the time of abandonment and selected to play in the 2020–21 UEFA Champions League.[3]
The league winner will qualify for the 2021–22 UEFA Champions League preliminary round.[4]
After a delay due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the league restarted on 24 February 2021. Teams will now play each other once instead of twice in order to finish the league on 22 May 2021.[5]
