In Division One, Empire Enforcers (Tony Rutledge, Andrew Maguire and Brendyn Shaw) won the grade after a long hard battle with Waterloo Wolves, only pulling away at the end.
In Division Two, Empire Elms (Vladimir Vysotskiy, Sochiro Eguchi and Yudi Yudistra) prevailed over the Empire Egrets again after a long hard battle.
