Yorkshire 6 was an English Rugby Union league which existed for a short period in the 2000s and throughout its existence it was the basement league of club rugby in Yorkshire. It was merged with Yorkshire 5 towards the end of the 2000s and the teams which would have been promoted into Yorkshire 5 that season were elevated to Yorkshire 4. At this point Yorkshire 5 became the basement league of Yorkshire club rugby.
