Essex Spitfire 2 was an English Rugby Union league at the tenth tier of the domestic competition. It was the basement division of club rugby in Essex with promoted teams moving up to Essex Canterbury Jack 1 and no relegation (up until 2008-09 relegated teams dropped to Essex 3 but this division has since been abolished). Essex Spitfire 2 was created in 2003 (then known as Essex 2) by Essex-based teams who left East Counties 3 South. At the end of 2013-14 the division was abolished with teams either moving up into Essex Canterbury Jack 1 or into various Essex Merit leagues.
