The 2016 League1 Ontario season is the third season of play for League1 Ontario, a Division 3 semi-professional soccer league in the Canadian soccer pyramid and the highest level of soccer based in the Canadian province of Ontario.

This season saw the return of all but one of the teams which completed the previous season, as well as the addition of five new teams for the men's division. The women's division saw the departure of two teams from its inaugural season, while four teams joined the league to result in a nine-team competition.

Five new teams (Aurora United FC, North Mississauga SC, North Toronto Nitros, Toronto Skillz FC) joined the men's division for this season, including FC London who moved over from the Premier Development League. One team (ANB Futbol) from 2015 did not renew their license, resulting in a 16-team competition and a change from a single-table format to a two-conference format.

The league's cup tournament for the men's division will be a single-elimination competition; eliminating the group stage seen in previous editions.

The women's division enters its second season with nine teams, after the addition of four teams (Aurora United FC, Darby FC, Kingston Clippers, and FC London) and the departure of two teams (ANB Futbol and Pro Stars FC) from the previous season. It will remain in a single-table format for the 2016 season.

On June 16, 2016, Toronto FC entered into a partnership with the Windsor Stars wherein the latter would become a "regional satellite club" of the former, who would in turn provide technical and coaching development. As part of the agreement, Windsor would become known as "Windsor TFC" in the future. The agreement does not affect the participation in L1O of either the Windsor Stars or TFC's Academy team.

Each team will play 22 matches as part of the season; two against every team in their own conference, and one against every team in the opposing conference. The top team from each conference will meet at the end of the season to determine the league champion and will face the PLSQ league champion in the Inter-Provincial Cup.
