London 2 North East is an English level 7 Rugby Union League.[1] It is made up of teams predominantly from north east London, Cambridgeshire, Suffolk, Norfolk and Essex. The twelve teams play home and away matches from September through to April.

Promoted teams move up to London 1 North with the league champions going up automatically and the runners up entering a promotion playoff against the league runners up from London 2 North West. Demoted teams typically drop down to London 3 North East.

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 North 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.
