Hertfordshire 2 was an English level 9 Rugby Union league with teams from Hertfordshire and parts of north London taking part. Promoted teams used to move up to Hertfordshire 1 and, as it was the lowest level league in the region, there was no relegation. After just three seasons the league was cancelled at the end of the 1989–90 campaign.
