The start of the season was impacted by the ongoing
COVID-19 situation. Two game-week one matches, between
Jura Sud Foot and
Saint-Priest, and
Bourges 18 and
Le Puy were postponed due to a number of positive COVID-19 tests at Jura Sud Foot and Bourges 18. The game-week two match between
Marignane-Gignac and Jura Sud Foot was also postponed. Jura Sud Foot had a third postponement in game-week three, with the match against
Rumilly-Vallières being called off. Their game-week four game against
Louhans-Cuiseaux was initially postponed by one day to Sunday 6 September, against the wishes of the club, who wanted it postponed due to the team having not trained for 15 days. The FFF insisted the game go ahead, but Jura Sud Foot turned out just eight players, and a first-minute injury caused the game to be abandoned by the referee. Two other Group C games in game-week four were also postponed:
Andrézieux-Bouthéon v
Monaco (res) and
Toulon v
Marseille (res). Game-week 5 games between
Angers (res) and
Le Puy in Group D and between Marseille (res) and Saint-Priest in Group C were postponed, as were Game-week 6 games between
Châteaubriant and
Poissy, and between Le Puy and
Nantes (res), due to both visiting teams having positive case. Jura Sud Foot suffered their fourth postponement of the season when their game-week 6 match at
Grasse was postponed due to the home team having positive cases.
Haguenau versus
Bobigny in the same game-week was also postponed due to a positive case for the home team. Three game-week 7 matches in Group C were postponed, featuring
Hyères, Grasse,
Martigues,
Toulon,
Olympic Marseille (res) and
Rumilly-Vallières. Eight games across groups A, B and C were postponed in game-week 9. On 28 October 2020, French President
Emmanuel Macron announced a second
COVID-19 lockdown, including the suspension of all amateur football, for four weeks. The following day, the
FFF confirmed the suspension of senior football at all levels below
Championnat National. On 18 February 2021, the
FFF announced that the competition would resume in full on 13 March 2021, with any previously postponed games able to take place a week earlier on 6 March, and also on 27 February for clubs no longer involved in the Coupe de France. On 3 March 2021, after just five rearranged matches had been played,
Roxana Mărăcineanu, the
Minister of Sports, walked back the decision to allow resumption on the grounds of a degrading health situation.
Change to format of the competition On 22 February 2021, the
FFF announce a change to the format of the competition, due to insufficient time to complete the remaining scheduled fixtures. The first half of the tournament, consisting of each team playing each other team in the group once, for a total of fifteen games each, will complete on 24 April. Between 8 May and 12 June, in each group the top 8 clubs will play in a group round-robin to decide promotion, and the bottom 8 clubs will play in a group round-robin to decide relegation. Points from the first phase will be carried forward to the promotion and relegation groups.
Voiding of the competition On 23 April 2021, the
COMEX (executive committee) of the FFF announced the end of the Championnat National 2 season due to the ongoing COVID-19 situation. The announcement also confirmed no promotions or relegations would take place, with the season void. ==League tables==
