Lancs/Cheshire 3 (North)
Lancs/Cheshire Division 3 (North) is a regional English Rugby Union league for teams based primarily in southern Lancashire and Greater Manchester, ranked at tier 9 of the English rugby union league system. Teams are typically promoted into South Lancs/Cheshire 2. As this the basement level for club rugby union for teams in the region there is no relegation, and any team from this area wanting to begin in club rugby union must start at this level. Up until the end of the 2016-17 season, this division was known as South Lancs/Cheshire 3 but was split into two regional leagues - Lancs/Cheshire 3 (North) and Lancs/Cheshire 3 (South) - for the start of the 2017-18 season.
