West Ryde Rovers got on a roll and hauled in the tearget score in the 14th over for the loss of just 3 wickets. Robert Roots (1/10) and Jack Johnson (1/21) were the best of the Hornsby bowlers.

Best Batsman of the final was Tom Collins (27), Best Bowler was shared between Tom O'Connell and Julian Uganotti (2/7) while Sam Lloyd was chosen as player of the final with 16no and 1/6. The Umpires Chose Robert Roots of Hornsby as their winner of the "Spirit of Cricket Award".
