Among the 31 CFU member associations, four of them were classified as professional leagues and each may enter two teams in the CONCACAF Caribbean Club Championship. However, one association was not allowed to enter this season, and as a result, only six teams from three associations entered the 2020 CONCACAF Caribbean Club Championship. [3]
