On Wednesday Scotland matched Ireland's achievement by beating The Netherlands by 10 - 2 whilst Ireland had an 8 - 4 win over Wales.

Whilst Wales and The Netherlands fought out a 6 - 6 draw on Thursday, it was all to play for on the final day in the match between Ireland and Scotland, with Scotland being denied a win in the tournament as ireland held the Scots to a 6 - 6 draw and retained the title by virtue of most games won over the series.
