Kent 3

Kent 3 was an English Rugby Union league that was the third tier for clubs in south-east London and Kent. Promoted teams went up to Kent 2 and relegation was to Kent 4 until that league was abolished at the end of the 2000–01 season. Dwindling numbers of teams meant that the division folded at the end of the 2007–08 season, with all sides automatically promoted to Kent 2.
