Teams for 2022-23

This was the first season following the RFU Adult Competition Review. The league was substantially similar to Surrey 1 but while that league had been at level 9 of the English rugby pyramid the new league was at level 8 with London 3 South West which had been the league Surrey, Hampshire and West Sussex clubs were promoted to out of their level 9 county leagues disappearing.
Part of the ACR adjustments meant the league was increased from 10 teams to 12. Eight of the teams had previously competed in Surrey 1 and they were joined from the top three from Surrey 2 as well as London Exiles, a re-entry having withdrawn from London 2 South West in season 2021–22.
