The National Championship II (Hungarian: Nemzeti Bajnokság II, also DHL Nemzeti Bajnokság II for sponsorship reasons) is the third and lowest level of domestic club rugby union in Hungary after the Extraliga and the National Championship I. The competition was introduced in 1989. It has undergone a major overhaul for the 2011-12 season, changing into a championship for some of the newer teams where promotion is unlikely.

Format and structure

For the 2011-12 season, the league is played by five teams who play in a number of centralized tournaments (tournaments held in one location). Matches consist of two halves of twenty minutes.[1]
