The 2020/21 season is set to be the 18th season of the A-Juniors Bundesliga . An opening date is not yet known.
After the preseason was declared prematurely ended due to the COVID-19 pandemic following a decision by the DFB on May 25, 2020, no reigning champions and cup winners will take part. Since the relegations were temporarily suspended, the field of participants will consist of the 42 participants from the previous season and the promoted players. The names of the promoted players were made by the respective division carriers in their own responsibility. In the North / Northeast and South / Southwest seasons, four new teams can participate in the game, and three in the West season.
