Hampshire 2 (1987–1993) Originally known as Hampshire 2, it was tier 9 league with promotion up to
Hampshire 1 and as it was the lowest league level in the region, there was no relegation.
Hampshire 2 (1993–1996) The creation of
National 5 South meant that Hampshire 2 dropped from a tier 9 league to a tier 10 league for the years that National 5 South was active. Promotion continued to
Hampshire 1, while the introduction of
Hampshire 3 ahead of the 1994–95 season meant that there was now relegation.
Hampshire 2 (1996–2000) The cancellation of
National 5 South at the end of the 1995–96 season meant that Hampshire 2 reverted to being a tier 9 league. Promotion and relegation continued to
Hampshire 1 and
Hampshire 3 respectively.
Hampshire 2 (2000–2009) The introduction of
London 4 South West ahead of the 2000–01 season meant Hampshire 2 dropped to become a tier 10 league. Promotion and relegation continued to
Hampshire 1 and
Hampshire 3 respectively.
Hampshire 2 (2009–2018) Hampshire 2 remained a tier 10 league despite national restructuring by the
RFU. Promotion was to
Hampshire 1 and there was no relegation due to the cancellation of
Hampshire 3 at the end of the 2008–09 season.
Hampshire 1 (2018–present) Restructuring of the Hampshire leagues saw Hampshire 2 renamed as Hampshire 1. It remained a tier 10 league with promotion to
Hampshire Premier (formerly Hampshire 1) and relegation returned to the newly introduced
Hampshire 2 (formerly Hampshire 3). ==Number of league titles==
