The final was a struggle between two determined teams. Dromore did not find the green easy to play on because of its slowness and quickly fell behind to a rampant Newry.

At the three-quarter stage, Newry were strolling to victory but the game took a dramatic swing. Newry lost a player with and injury and this sparked Dromore into life. At the finish only four shots separated the teams, the victory going to Dromore.

On the following day, Dromore settled the quicker. The confidence gained by the previous day’s victory allowed them to play their normal game and they finished the winners by a 24 shot margin. The maximum five points were thus gained.
