Snows Group Hampshire 2, also known as Hampshire 2, is an English level 10 Rugby Union League. For the 2014-2015 season it is made up of 10 teams from Hampshire. The ten teams play home and away matches from September through to April.
Promoted teams move up to Hampshire 1 but as this is the bottom tier of club rugby union in Hampshire there is no relegation from this division (up until 2008-09 there was a third division called Hampshire 3). The points system is as follows.
- 4 points awarded for a win.
- 2 points awarded for a draw.
- 0 points awarded for a loss.
- 1 "bonus" (+) point awarded for scoring 4 tries (or more).
- 1 "bonus" (+) point awarded for losing by 7 points (or fewer).
No team can get more than 5 points in a match. Points awarded are the same regardless of outcome at home or away.
