2023–24

Participating teams and locations

Leaving the league were Chobham promoted to Regional 2 Thames. [12] Warlingham were relegated to Counties 2 Surrey for what were reported as "...administrative, rather than playing, reasons...". [13] Joining the league were promoted sides Teddington, from Counties 2 Surrey, Eastbourne and East Grinstead, both from Counties 2 Sussex. Coming down from Regional 2 South East were KCS Old Boys. [14] [15] Further post-ACR adjustments meant the league was restored to twelve teams. [16]

2022–23

Participating teams and locations

This was the first season following the RFU Adult Competition Review. The league was similar to London 2 South West but was smaller (12 teams reduced to 10) with Counties 1 Hampshire taking teams that historically would have played in London 2 South West. This prompted a substantial reordering of the leagues with two teams, Kingston and Trinity, effectively achieving a 'double' promotion from level 9 (Surrey 1) to level 7 of the RFU rugby pyramid. [18] Warlingham, Weybridge Vandals and Old Walcountians were all promoted from the upper end of London 3 South West whilst, rather less predictably, Old Cranleighans also came up from the same league despite having finished in last place.
