Due to widespread league restructuring at the end of the previous season there were multiple new teams in the division; Bedford, Blackheath, Coventry, Fylde, Morley, Richmond and Rosslyn Park, all of whom were relegated from tier 2, and there was no promotion into the league from tier 4. Following their relegation last season, Coventry won the division and a quick return to the 1994–95 National Division 2 for next season. They are joined by the runner-up, Fylde, who were also relegated last season. Havant and Redruth are both relegated to the 1994–95 National Division 4. Havant were runners-up last season and would have been promoted to National Division 2 if the leagues had not been re-organised. Structure Restructuring at the end of the previous season meant that the division had been reduced from twelve teams down to ten, but now for the first time each side played one another twice, in a round robin system, home and away, to make a total of eighteen matches for each team.Jones Stephen Griffiths John Rothmans Rugby Union Yearbook 1993–94 1993 Headline Book Publishing London 0 7472 7891 1 151–167 22ndJones Stephen Griffiths John Rothmans Rugby Union Yearbook 1994–95 1994 Headline Book Publishing London 0 7472 7850 4 163–179 23rd The top two teams were promoted to National Division 2 while the bottom two teams were relegated to the new National Division 4.
