Eight teams from as far as Moruca, Region One, Henrietta, Queenstown, Devonshire, Castle, Charity, Supernaam, Dartmouth and Richmond were the contenders.
Emerging in first place was Queenstown winning 2-1 against Henrietta United. Queenstown were awarded $50,000 dollars along with a trophy, Henrietta took second place and walked away with $25,000thousand dollars and a trophy, while Charity who finished third collected a trophy and $10,000 thousand dollars.
Sherwin Hubbard was named the most valuable player for the tournament, with a spectacular goal and for scoring the most.
Meanwhile, a new addition to the tournament saw a group of Junior ranks from the police training School at Suddie participating.
