Dorset & Wilts 2 North honours

Berks/Dorset/Wilts 2 (1987–1993)

Originally Dorset & Wilts 2 North and Dorset & Wilts 2 South were combined in a single division known as Berks/Dorset/Wilts 2, involving clubs based in Berkshire, Dorset and Wiltshire.  It was a tier 9 league with promotion to Berks/Dorset/Wilts 1 and, from the 1988–89 season onward, relegation was to either Berks/Dorset/Wilts 3 East or Berks/Dorset/Wilts 3 West.

Berks/Dorset/Wilts 2 (1993–1996)

The creation of National League 5 South for the 1993–94 season meant that Berks/Dorset/Wilts 2 dropped to become a tier 10 league.  Promotion continued to Berks/Dorset/Wilts 1, while relegation was now to Berks/Dorset/Wilts 3.

Berks/Dorset/Wilts 2 (1996–2000)

The cancellation of National League 5 South at the end of the 1995–96 season meant that Berks/Dorset/Wilts 2 reverted to being a tier 9 league.  Promotion continued to Berks/Dorset/Wilts 1 and relegation to Berks/Dorset/Wilts 3.

Dorset & Wilts 2 North (2000–2004)

At the end of the 1999–2000 season Berks/Wilts/Dorset 2 was restructured following the departure of Berkshire clubs to join the Bucks & Oxon leagues.  It was now split into two tier 9 regional leagues – Dorset & Wilts 2 North and Dorset & Wilts 2 South.  Promotion from Dorset & Wilts 2 North was now to Dorset & Wilts 2 and there was no relegation due to the cancellation of Berks/Wilts/Dorset 3.

Dorset & Wilts 2 North (2004–2009)

Ahead of the 2004–05 season, local league restructuring meant that promotion from Dorset & Wilts 2 North was now to Dorset & Wilts 1 North (formerly Dorset & Wilts 1) and relegation to the newly introduced Dorset & Wilts 3 North (last known as Berks/Dorset/Wilts 3).  It remained a tier 9 league.

Dorset & Wilts 2 North (2009–present)

Despite widespread restructuring by the RFU at the end of the 2008–09 season, Dorset & Wilts 2 North remained a tier 9 league, with promotion continuing to Dorset & Wilts 1 North and relegation to Dorset & Wilts 3 North.
