Southern Counties North is a division in the English rugby union system[1] sitting at the seventh tier of club rugby union in England and primarily featuring teams based in Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire. The league champions at the end of each season are automatically promoted to South West 1 East while the runners up play a playoff against the runners up from Southern Counties South for their place. Relegated teams tend to drop to Berks/Bucks & Oxon Premier.
