 In a close match  Midlothian  beat Lanarkshire 5- 4 to earn a full 3 competition  points and to win  the County Championship Trophy and gold medals.

Lanarkshire finished on 1.5 points as did North but Lanarkshire won more games  and so they finished second and won silver medals and the FJ Morison Trophy. Very well done girls.
