2020–21 Derde Divisie

← 2019–20 |
The 2020–21 Derde Divisie season is the fifth edition of the Dutch fourth tier, formerly called Topklasse, since the restructuring of the league system in the summer of 2016.
Effects of the 2020 coronavirus pandemic
In the previous season, on 31 March 2020, the KNVB decided to cancel all competitions at amateur level. They also decided, for those competitions involved, there would be no final standings, and therefore no champions, no promotions and no relegations.[1] As a result this season starts with the exact same teams as the previous season.
On 7 April 2020, FC Lienden announced the withdrawal of its Sunday team. The club had ran into financial problems for some time after Lienden indicated that it would no longer sponsor the team and it was not possible to find a new main sponsor.[2] Besides Lienden, the two remaining reserve teams, Jong ADO and Jong Almere City, or any other reserves, can no longer play in the Derde Divisie from this season on. In accordance with the decision from KNVB's meeting on 16 December 2019, these two teams are playing in the new under-21 competition.[3]
