The 2019 Women's League1 Ontario season was the fifth season of play for League1 Ontario, a Division 3 women's soccer league in the Canadian soccer pyramid and the highest level of soccer based in the Canadian province of Ontario. FC London won the league championship after beating the Oakville Blue Devils in the finals.[1]

Changes from 2018

The women's division grew from 13 to 14 teams, with the addition of three new women's sides from FC Oshawa, Alliance United FC, and Ottawa South United, while West Ottawa SC and Toronto Azzurri Blizzard departed the league.[2]

For the first time ever, the L1O season did not include a cup competition which had previously been played alongside the regular season. Additionally, the group stage playoff format was changed to a more traditional knockout bracket with two-leg matchups in the quarter-finals and semi-finals.[3]

Regular season

Each team plays 13 matches as part of the season; one match against all other teams. The top eight teams advance to the playoffs to determine the league champion.
