A total of 23 teams participated in the finals day with Rockwell College winning the senior competition and St. Anne’s Community College coming out on top in the Junior competition.
Rockwell and St. Anne’s qualified for the National Girls X7s Finals Day along with schools who were runners-up at the Munster Girls X7s Finals Day.
