The 2020 Sky Blue FC season was the team's 11th season as a professional women's soccer team, and their eighth season as a member of the National Women's Soccer League.

The season was originally scheduled to begin on March 18, 2020. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the start date was delayed. Preseason matches were cancelled on March 12^[2] and on April 4 it was announced that a moratorium on training would continue through May 5, 2020.^[3] On April 24, the NWSL announced the moratorium on training would be extended through May 15.^[4] The start date of the season was further shifted to an indeterminate point, with the league promising to "include an appropriate preseason training period" before launching the season.^[4] Small group training resumed on May 25,^[5] and on May 27 the NWSL announced that the 2020 NWSL Challenge Cup would mark the league's return to action following the COVID-19 pandemic.^[6] The tournament was hosted in Utah from June 27 to July 26.^[6]

On June 22, 2020, the NWSL confirmed that the regular season had been cancelled and the Challenge Cup would act as the 2020 season.^[7] Sky Blue finished the preliminary round as the seventh seed^[8] before ultimately being eliminated in the semi-finals by the Chicago Red Stars.^[9]

On August 25, the NWSL announced that the season would continue with a Fall Series beginning on September 5. Per the rules of the series, Sky Blue played four matches as part of a three-team regional pod with the Chicago Red Stars and Washington Spirit.^[10] Sky Blue ultimately placed fourth in the Fall Series.
