'''Counties 2 Yorkshire''', previously known as '''Yorkshire 2''' is an English rugby union league at the eighth tier of the domestic competition for teams from Yorkshire. Club rugby in Yorkshire operates without promotion play-offs meaning that the top two teams are automatically promoted to Counties 1 Yorkshire and the bottom two teams are relegated to Counties 3 Yorkshire. Each season a team from Yorkshire 2 is picked to take part in the RFU Senior Vase - a national competition for clubs at level 8.

==Participating clubs 2026-27==

Ahead of the new season a decision was taken to introduce 2XVs into the league(s) and to split the clubs out into A and B divisions.

Departing were Bridlington and Old Otliensians promoted to Counties 1 Yorkshire while Halifax and Ossett were relegated to Counties 3 Yorkshire B.

==Participating clubs 2022–23==

This was the first season following the RFU Adult Competition Review. The league was substantially similar to Yorkshire 2 with teams ranked 4th to 12th returning (1st to 3rd were 'promoted' to Counties 1 Yorkshire and the bottom two 'relegated' to Counties 3 Yorkshire) and supplemented by top 3 from Yorkshire 3 and so with five departing but only three arriving the league was reduced from 14 teams to 12.

==Yorkshire 2 honours==

===Yorkshire 2 (1987–1993)===

The original Yorkshire 2 was a tier 10 league with promotion up to Yorkshire 1 and relegation down to Yorkshire 3.

===Yorkshire 2 (1993–2000)===

The creation of National 5 North for the 1993–94 season meant that Yorkshire 2 dropped to become a tier 11 league. A further restructure at the end of the 1995–96 season, which included the cancellation of National 5 North and the addition of North East 3 at tier 9, saw Yorkshire 2 remain at tier 11.

| colspan="15" style="border:0; font-size:smaller; text-align:center;"| Green backgrounds are promotion places. |}

===Yorkshire 2 (2000–present)===

Northern league restructuring by the RFU at the end of the 1999–2000 season saw the cancellation of North East 1, North East 2 and North East 3 (tiers 7–9). This meant that Yorkshire 2 became a tier 8 league.
