North 2 West is a regional English rugby union league at the seventh tier of club rugby union for teams from Cheshire, Cumbria, Merseyside, Lancashire and Greater Manchester. The division was introduced for the 2019-20 season to form a new league at tier 7 - meaning that Lancs/Cheshire 1 would drop to being a tier 8 league.
Promoted teams enter North 1 West while relegated teams typically drop down to Lancs/Cheshire 1 or Cumbria. Each season teams from North 2 West are picked to take part in the RFU Intermediate Cup (a national competition for clubs at level 7).
Teams 2021–22
The teams competing in 2021-22 achieved their places in the league based on performances in 2019-20, the 'previous season' column in the table below refers to that season not 2020-21.
Outgoing teams were Manchester and Glossop who were promoted to North 2 West whilst Eccles (11th) and Sefton (12th) would have been relegated to Lancs/Cheshire 1 but instead withdrew from the RFU leagues to join the Lancashire ADM competition, as did Aspull who finished in 8th position. Also departed are Aspatria who were level transferred to Durham/Northumberland 1 meaning the league has been reduced from 14 to 13.
