The 2020 Caribbean Club Shield was originally to be the third edition of the Caribbean Club Shield (also known as the CFU Club Shield), the second-tier annual international club football competition in the Caribbean region, held amongst clubs whose football associations are affiliated with the Caribbean Football Union (CFU), a sub-confederation of CONCACAF.

The tournament was originally scheduled to be played in Curaçao between 3–12 April 2020.{{cite web |title=Curacao to Host 2020 Concacaf Caribbean Club Shield |url=https://www.concacaf.com/en/caribbean-club-shield/article/curacao-to-host-2020-concacaf-caribbean-club-shield |website=www.concacaf.com |accessdate=8 February 2020 |language=en}} On 13 March 2020, CONCACAF suspended all upcoming competitions scheduled to take place over the next 30 days due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with the new dates of the tournament to be confirmed later.{{cite web|url=https://www.concacaf.com/en/article/concacaf-suspends-all-its-competitions-scheduled-to-take-place-over-the-next-30-days|title=Concacaf suspends all its competitions scheduled to take place over the next 30 days|publisher=CONCACAF|date=13 March 2020}} On 7 August 2020, they provided an update on the tournament, where they would make a final decision by the end of August to determine if it could be played in mid-September.{{cite web |title=Concacaf launches plan to resume suspended Club Competitions |url=https://www.concacaf.com/en/article/concacaf-launches-plan-to-resume-suspended-club-competitions |website=www.concacaf.com |accessdate=7 August 2020 |language=en |date=7 August 2020}} On 25 August 2020, CONCACAF announced that as it was impossible to organize the tournament in September in order to provide qualification for the 2020 CONCACAF League which would start in October, the tournament was cancelled.{{cite web|url=https://www.concacaf.com/en/article/update-on-concacaf-caribbean-club-shield-and-flow-concacaf-caribbean-club-championship|title=Update on Concacaf Caribbean Club Shield and Flow Concacaf Caribbean Club Championship|publisher=CONCACAF|date=25 August 2020}}

The winners of the 2020 CONCACAF Caribbean Club Shield, as long as they fulfill the CONCACAF Regional Club Licensing criteria, would originally play against the fourth place team of the 2020 CONCACAF Caribbean Club Championship in a playoff match to determine the final Caribbean spot to the 2020 CONCACAF League.{{cite news|title=CONCACAF Circular no. 555|date=August 31, 2017|publisher=CONCACAF}}
