2008–2010 European Nations Cup Third Division
The 2008–2010 European Nations Cup 'Third Division' was contested over two years during which all teams met each other home and away. The Third Division consisted of four levels, which effectively constituted the 5th through 8th levels of European international rugby. The winner of each division was promoted to the next highest division. Due to changes in the competition, the last placed team was not relegated to the next division lower.
The leader of each division at the end of the 2008–2009 season received the opportunity to participate in the qualification for the 2011 Rugby World Cup.
The previous champion of Division 3A, Sweden, was promoted to the Second Division and replaced with relegated side Andorra.
