Devon League 2 (also known as Devon League 2 for sponsorship reasons) was an English level ten rugby union league for clubs based in Devon; with one exception (St Columba and Torpoint RFC is based in Torpoint, Cornwall and have always played in Plymouth Combination competitions). The champions and runners-up were promoted to Devon League 1, and after the cancellation of Devon League 3 in 2003 there was no relegation as this was the lowest division in club rugby union in Devon.

The league was cancelled at the end of the 2017–18 season, with teams being either promoted into Devon League 1 or transferred into the Devon Merit Leagues.

Format

The season ran from September to April and comprised twenty-six rounds of matches, with each club playing each of its rivals, home and away. The results of the matches contributed points to the league as follows:

  • 4 points were awarded for a win
  • 2 points were awarded for a draw
  • 0 points were awarded for a loss, however
  • 1 losing (bonus) point was awarded to a team that loses a match by 7 points or fewer
  • 1 additional (bonus) point was awarded to a team scoring 4 tries or more in a match.

The top two teams were promoted to Western Counties West and the bottom three teams were relegated to either Cornwall One or Devon One depending on their location.

2017–18

The season started on 28 October 2017 and the last matches were played on 24 February 2018

Devon 2B

Devon 2B was for teams based in the rest of Devon.
