SportRugby union
Country England

The Hampshire Merit Tables are a set of leagues for rugby union teams based in Hampshire and the Isle of Wight for second, third and fourth teams of clubs who up until the 2018–19 season could not enter the first team leagues such as Hampshire 1 and Hampshire 2.

For the 2014–15 season the structure of the leagues changed to a regional basis consisting of Solent League, Hampshire South East, Hampshire South West and Hampshire North. In 2015–16 Solent League 2 was added.

In 2016–17 the leagues reverted to the older structure but named Solent League 1, 2, 3 and 4.
