Gloucester 3 is an English rugby union league which sits at the eleventh level of league rugby union in England for teams based in Gloucestershire as well as some in Bristol. Promoted clubs move into Gloucester 2. However, there is no relegation as this is the basement league for club rugby union in Gloucestershire.
2015–16
The 2015–16 Gloucester 3 consists of seven teams from Gloucestershire. The season starts on 12 September 2015 and is due to end on 16 April 2016.
Participating teams and location
Four of the seven teams participated in last season's competition. The 2014–15 champions Smiths and runners up Minchinhampton were promoted to the Gloucester 2 while Wotton joined from the Gloucestershire Reserve League. As it is the basement league in Gloucestershire there is no relegation.
