Former winners Bellaghy lost in the final to All Ireland club champions St. Gall’s of Belfast the holders who were winning the competition for a record fourth team. Amazingly it was the twelfth successive year that an Ulster team has won this very popular All Ireland week end tournament.

St. Gall’s came through a group which included Derry champions Loup but in the final it took two late goals to see off Bellaghy who were in front at half time.
