Australian rules football club season
The 2020 Collingwood Football Club season is the club's 124th season of senior competition in the Australian Football League (AFL). The club also fielded its women's team in the AFL Women's competition though because of the COVID-19 pandemic it did not field reserves sides in the Victorian Football League and VFL Women's competitions.

VFL/VFLW seasons (cancelled)
Collingwood had been expected to field a reserves men's team in the Victorian Football League for a thirteenth consecutive season. The AFL however issued a direction to all 18 clubs mandating that no AFL-listed player at a club could participate in a second-tier state league amidst the COVID-19 pandemic and the season was cancelled indefinitely.[ 87] Collingwood also did not field a team in the VFL Women's league, as the competition was reduced to a four-team Super Series.[ 88]
