Introduction

• The primary objective of this site is to list all 1200+ English rugby union clubs playing in leagues with a working web link to the clubs and to their RFU league page. It is best viewed in Internet Explorer - formating goes awry in other browsers.

• The English league structure is headed by the Premiership (12 clubs) with a fully professional Championship (12 clubs) at Level 2. There are now National Leagues at Levels 3 (16 clubs), 4 (16 clubs) and 5 (14 clubs). All these can be seen on the national league pages. Level 6 are the regional leagues and the county leagues come below these. These can all be seen on the relevant regional page - there are four RFU regions, namely London and SE , Midlands, North and South West.

• Additionally there are pages for referees' societies and county bodies. There is the only comprehensive webpage on the women's league structure. However I no longer maintain mini and youth sections - most clubs have youth sectiions.

• For 2010-2011 - all clubs, men's and women's, are in their correct league. Links are being checked but this is an ongoing task and please email me additions and corrections. The links to RFU leagues have now been finalised apart from some leagues in London.

• New clubs are always being added and as I update the leagues, I find some more sites. Here are the additions for July 2010 but you can check out the newcomers page which has all the new entries in the last year.

• Not listed? If your own or any club you know has been omitted, please mail me - links at bottom of page. Who's not here? As a rule of thumb, I only include clubs playing within the league structure - not schools or student sides. But I am beginning to include those clubs playing in county merit tables, outside the formal RFU structure.
