Ampthill was also transferred back to the division after spending the 2013–14 season in National League 2 South. At the end of the season the champions are promoted to National League 1 while the second placed team will play against the runners-up from the 2014–15 National League 2 South, with the winner also promoted. The bottom three teams, depending on geographical location, are usually relegated to either National League 3 North or National League 3 Midlands (in some cases teams may be relegated to the southern regional leagues). Hull Ionians claimed the title and promotion to National League 1 on the last day of the season, with Ampthill finishing as runners-up and having to be content with a promotion play-off. Both Hull Ionians and Ampthill were head and shoulders over the other teams in the division, with Ionians narrow 7 – 6 victory over Ampthill on 24 January ultimately being the deciding factor in who would end up as champions.http://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/Hull-Ionians-narrow-win-rivals-Ampthill/story-25921190-detail/story.html Hull Ionians go top after narrow win over rivals Ampthill Hull Daily Mail 26 January 2015 September 2019 InternetArchiveBot yes http://www.pitchero.com/clubs/hullionians/s/match-centre-7283/1-975291/ Champions Pitchero 25 April 2015 1 May 2015 https://web.archive.org/web/20150506060612/http://www.pitchero.com/clubs/hullionians/s/match-centre-7283/1-975291 6 May 2015 dead While the title chase was tight, the fight against relegation was even tighter.
