Green backgrounds are promotion places.
  1. The creation of a new division 4 below this league for the next season would lead to a downsizing of the division from 17 teams to 10 resulting in much more relegation spots than usual.
  2. The division would be renamed London Division 2 South East for the next season and along with the whole national restructure of the league system by the RFU lead to mass changes at all levels.
  3. Both Aylesford Bulls and the runners up from London 2 West, Wimbledon, were promoted to London 2 South this year.
