Final Report

Both teams were undefeated coming into the Final, but Purley really turned it on in first half to build an unassailable 7 - 3 lead. John Maydick in particular was on fire with some stunning ripping shots in and around the goal; the keeper was lucky he didn't manage to get in the way of some of them.
