The division was set to be re-branded National League 2 South for the following season due to an RFU reshuffle of the entire league system.https://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/rugby_union/english/7720024.stm Championship plan gains support BBC News 14 November 2008 New teams to the division included Henley Hawks who were relegated from the 2007–08 National Division Two while promoted teams included Richmond (champions) and Worthing Raiders (playoffs) from London Division 1, Chinnor who returned after an absence of just one year as champions of South West Division 1 and finally Rugby Lions who were transferred from the 2008–09 National Division Three North to ensure that there was not an imbalance of teams between the two regional leagues.http://www.oxfordmail.co.uk/sport/rugby/2166727.RUGBY_UNION__Henley_in_denial/?ref=arc RUGBY UNION: Henley in denial Oxford Mail 2 April 2008 http://www.hertsad.co.uk/sport/rugby-union/richmond_on_the_rise_as_oas_falter_1_288249 Richmond on the rise as OAs falter The Herts Advertiser 24 April 2007 2 September 2015 24 September 2015 https://web.archive.org/web/20150924030237/http://www.hertsad.co.uk/sport/rugby-union/richmond_on_the_rise_as_oas_falter_1_288249 dead http://www.worthingherald.co.uk/sport/raiders-play-off-glory-1-238889 Raiders' Play-off glory Worthing Herald 28 April 2008 http://www.chinnor-rfc.com/teams/1031/match-centre/1-2543 We are the Champions Chinnor RFC 19 April 2008 2 September 2015 https://web.archive.org/web/20160305074113/http://www.chinnor-rfc.com/teams/1031/match-centre/1-2543 5 March 2016 dead http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/sport/rugby/lions-are-heading-south-3099915 Lions are heading south Coventry Telegraph 29 April 2008 The league system was 4 points for a win, 2 points for a draw and additional bonus points being awarded for scoring 4 or more tries and/or losing within 7 points of the victorious team. In terms of promotion the league champions would go straight up into what would be known as National League 1 from 2009-10 but unlike previous years, there would be no promotion playoff between the runners up of the division and the runners up of National Division Three North due to the league restructuring. London Scottish finished the season as champions and clinched the only promotion spot to the (newly named) 2009–10 National League 1.http://www.englandrugby.com/fixtures-and-results/competitions/national-leagues/2008-2009/group/12680 National League Three South 2008-09 2 May 2009 http://www.yourlocalguardian.co.uk/sport/4322289.London_Scottish_secure_promotion_to_National_One/ London Scottish secure promotion to National One yourlocalguardian.co.uk 27 April 2009 The Richmond-based side had a successful season with only one draw against Rugby Lions early on in the season blemishing what would have been a perfect record (this was achieved by Plymouth Albion back in the 2001-02 season). Fellow Londoners, runners up Rosslyn Park had a good season which could have seen them champions on any other year but they finished 22 points behind Scottish and did not have the consolation of a playoff due to the league restructuring. The two relegation spots were filled by Havant, who were the worst team in the division (ending a five-year stay in National 3 South), and Chinnor, who ranked down again but were improved from their last time spent in the division.http://www.portsmouth.co.uk/sport/other-sport/rugby/havant-relegated-1-1229608 Havant relegated portsmouth.co.uk 6 April 2009 Havant would drop to National League 3 London & South East (formerly London Division 1) while Chinnor would drop to National League 3 South West (formerly South West Division 1).http://www.englandrugby.com/fixtures-and-results/competitions/london-se-division/2009-2010/ National League 3 London & SE englandrugby.com 5 September 2009 2 September 2015 24 September 2015 https://web.archive.org/web/20150924033252/http://www.englandrugby.com/fixtures-and-results/competitions/london-se-division/2009-2010/ dead http://www.englandrugby.com/fixtures-and-results/competitions/south-west-division/2009-2010/ National League 3 South West englandrugby.com 5 September 2009 2 September 2015 3 May 2016 https://web.archive.org/web/20160503214757/http://www.englandrugby.com/fixtures-and-results/competitions/south-west-division/2009-2010/ dead yes Participating teams and locations England south 500 Locations of the 2008-09 National Division Three South teams England south 51.127889 -3.003632 70 Bridgwater & Albion right England south 51.280233 1.0789088 70 Canterbury bottom England south 51.746997 -.974188 70 Chinnor left England south 51.486712 -2.569297 70 Dings right England south 51.535764 -.902894 70 Henley left England south 50.8518324 -.9847132 70 Havant left England south 51.531908 0.039406 80 London bottom England south 51.729130 -2.530504 70 Lydney right England south 52.370878 -1.265032 70 Rugby right England south 50.829189 -0.483919 70 Worthing right England south TransparentPlaceholder.png 1 50.7 -0.5 80 London teams:BarkingEalingLondon ScottishRichmondRosslyn ParkWestcombe Park right Greater London Greater London National Division Three South clubs Greater London National Division Three South clubs right 350 Greater London 51.536563 0.0757659 Barking 75 right Greater London 51.525175 -0.330042 Ealing 75 bottom Greater London 51.46647 -0.30334 London Scottish 75 bottom Greater London 51.46647 -0.30334 Richmond 75 left Greater London 51.463457 -0.249171 Rosslyn Park 75 right Greater London 51.374843 0.0942139 Westcombe Park 75 bottom TeamStadiumCapacityCity/AreaBarkingGoresbrook1,000Barking, LondonBridgwater & AlbionBath Road5,000Bridgwater, SomersetCanterburyMerton Lane1,500 (75 seats)Canterbury, KentChinnorKingsey Road2,000Thame, OxfordshireDings CrusadersLandseer Avenue1,500Lockleaze, BristolEaling TrailfindersTrailfinders Sports Ground3,020Ealing, LondonHavantHook's Lane2,000 (200 seats)Courage Official Rugby Union Club Directory 1994–95 1994 Tony Williams Publications Taunton Bill Mitchell 236 Havant RFC (Ground Details)Havant, HampshireHenley HawksDry Leas4,000Henley-on-Thames, OxfordshireLondon ScottishAthletic Ground4,500 (1,000 seats)Richmond, LondonLydneyRegentsholme3,000 (340 seats)Courage Official Rugby Union Club Directory 1994–95 1994 Tony Williams Publications Taunton Bill Mitchell 308 Lydney R.F.C.
