2022–23 National League 1 is the 35th season of the third tier of the English domestic rugby union competitions, and following a reorganisation of the league structure, it is reverting to a 14-team format.

Structure

[edit]

The league consists of fourteen teams, with all the teams playing each other on a home and away basis, to make a total of twenty-six matches each. There is one promotion place, with the champions promoted to the RFU Championship, and there are three relegation places to either, National League 2 East, National League 2 North or National League 2 West, depending on the geographical location of the team.[2]

The results of the matches contribute points to the league table 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.

Participating teams and locations

[edit]

The reigning champions entering the season are Caldy who were crowned champions on 23 April 2022, following their final match of the season at home to runner-up Sale; beating them 13–9 in front of a club record attendance of 3,023. They were promoted to the RFU Championship. Blackheath (14th position) and Tonbridge Juddians (15th) were relegated to National League 2 East.[3]
