Counties 2 Devon (formerly Devon League 1) is an English level eight rugby union league for clubs primarily based in Devon (and occasionally includes one Cornish club — St Columba & Torpoint). The champions are promoted to Counties 1 Western West and relegation is to Counties 3 Devon East or Counties 3 Devon East.
Format
[edit]The season runs from September to April and comprises twenty-six rounds of matches, with each club playing each of its rivals, home and away. The results of the matches contribute points to the league as follows:
- 4 points are awarded for a win
- 2 points are awarded for a draw
- 0 points are awarded for a loss, however
- 1 losing (bonus) point is awarded to a team that loses a match by 7 points or fewer
- 1 additional (bonus) point is awarded to a team scoring 4 tries or more in a match.
The top two teams are promoted to Western Counties West and the bottom three teams are relegated to either Cornwall One or Devon One depending on their location.

2022-23
[edit]This was the first season following the RFU Adult Competition Review. The league was a continuation of Devon League 1 in name only with just the top two sides included in the new line-up of clubs. It was closer in standard to the Cornwall/Devon League (both being level 8) with four teams who played in that league the previous season included whilst the Cornish teams were allocated to Counties 2 Cornwall. Post ACR club sides were permitted to enter the RFU pyramid so five 2XVs joined alongside Honiton relegated from Western Counties West.

Notes
[edit]- ^ Exeter Athletic were previously called Wessex RFC until that club merged with Exeter Youth RFC at the end of the 2017-18 season.[1]
- ^ Plymouth Civil Services has since been disbanded.
- ^ Prince Rock would later merge with Woodland Fort to become known as Prince Rock Woodland Fort RFC. The club has since disbanded.
- ^ The restructuring of Devon 2A and Devon 2B into a single division at the end of the season, meant there was no relegation.
- ^ There was no relegation as the division was due to increase from 8 to 10 teams for the following season due to the cancellation of Devon 2.
- ^ The result of the 2003-04 promotion playoff between Old Plymothian & Mannamedian and Perranporth is not listed on the RFU website, although Old Plymothian & Mannamedian would have had home advantage as they had a better league record than Perranporth. We do, however, know that Old Plymothian & Mannamedian won this game as they were in Cornwall/Devon the next season while Perranporth were not.
- ^ Due to the restructuring of the English league system by the RFU for the following season there was no promotion play-off. The champions and runners-up from each league having automatic promotion.
- ^ Topsham were automatically promoted as Camborne School of Mines did not want promotion.[92]
- ^ Torrington were automatically promoted at the end of the 2016–17 season as Newquay Hornets did not want to be promoted.[94]
- ^ Old Plymothian & Mannamedian's titles includes one win by Old Plymothian prior to the clubs merger.
